Correction because I'm annoying: it's when you press shift 5 times in a row. It would be terrible if just holding it down for 5 seconds activated it, haha

Ha ha, it's still so fucking stupid though.

Hey let's activate hard disk defragmentation if you type 1 2 3 and 4 !!

Gee, I wonder why anybody might need an accessibility feature that enables key combinations to be executed one key at a time? I mean, it's not like there's anybody alive on Earth who's missing fingers, or has to use a pointing implement, so I guess we'll never know.
Windows has a lot of features to make computing easier for the profoundly disabled, you should check the Ease of Access Center to see if there's one for you.

So smart to use the shift button. It's idiotic. Put it in some config panel somewhere instead.

It makes it easier for people who struggle to enable it, and the able bodied can learn turn it off as well as the shortcut. It's not for you or about you, you weren't considered at all. Skill issue

Calm down, it's about a stupid windows feature, not the future of the planet lol.

This from the guy who doesn't know how to use his own computer? Don't try to save face.
