Stop Sticky/Filter/Toggle Keys pop-ups
Turns off the keyboard shortcuts that open accessibility prompts (e.g. pressing Shift five times).
Applying it needs Nexus Standard or Pro. Every plan can read it here and undo it in Restore Center. Compare plans
What it changes
HKCU\Control Panel\Accessibility\StickyKeys\Flags = "506" HKCU\Control Panel\Accessibility\Keyboard Response\Flags = "122" HKCU\Control Panel\Accessibility\ToggleKeys\Flags = "58"
Before anything is written, the review screen shows this setting's current value on your PC next to the new one.
Why it helps
No more game-interrupting Sticky Keys dialogs.
Trade-offs
The accessibility features remain available from Settings.
Evidence
Strong evidence means: documented by microsoft or consistently measurable. Expected impact is noticeable (2 of 3): how much it can matter when this is actually the bottleneck on your PC, not a promised gain.
Is it in a pack?
Yes. It's in the Gaming performance pack, so that pack and Optimize everything include it. You can still untick it in the review screen.
How to undo
Switch the tweak off in Nexus, or open Restore Center and restore this change (or choose Undo last change). Nexus writes back the original value it recorded before applying, not a generic default, then reads it back to confirm.
Like applying it, undoing it takes full effect after you sign out and back in.
