As a tetraplegic person, sticky keys are my lifesaver. I can only push one button at a time on my keyboard. Thanks to sticky keys, I can write grammatically correct and use key combinations.
That's what sticky keys is made for. Normally, it shouldn't be active on default though, on my computers it never was. I always had to turn it on.
The shortcut to activate them is active by default and windows will display a notification when you press shift 5 times (I think) asking you about it. That happens a lot when you play some games.
Easy enough to turn off the notification though. So not sure what OP is fussing about.
It isn't on by default, but pressing shift I think 5 times fast in a row is a shortcut not even to turn it on, but to display a pop-up asking you if you want to turn it on.
You can disable that though. However it still seems like something that shouldn't be happening by default, since no one is going to want to use it without knowing about it, and at that point opt-in seems better with how easy it is to do accidentally.
The thing about accessibility features is that they need to be accessible.
It is much easier for a regular person to disable them than for a disabled or old person to enable them.
