Windows 11 Adds 'Never Ask Again' Checkbox to Sticky Keys and Filter Keys Prompts

It lets users permanently dismiss the accessibility popups from the dialog, reducing interruptions for people who do not need those features.

Overview

  • Microsoft added a checkbox to the Sticky Keys and Filter Keys confirmation dialogs in recent Windows 11 Insider builds 26340.9882 (Experimental) and 26320.9876 (Beta).
  • Reporters who installed the Insider builds tested the update and confirmed the new option, labeled to stop the shortcut from triggering the prompt again, works without opening Settings.
  • The company is delivering the change as a Controlled Feature Rollout so the option is appearing in stages and may not be visible to all Insider or general Windows 11 users yet.
  • The in-dialog dismissal removes the need to hunt through Accessibility settings to disable the Shift shortcuts, which will cut down on accidental interruptions during work or gaming.
  • Sticky Keys and Filter Keys trace back to Windows 95-era accessibility work at the Trace Center, and Microsoft design leaders say this tweak fits a wider push to convert legacy Win32 dialogs to WinUI.
