CTRL key repetition

[Noomene]

Dear Dev,

First of all, thank you very much for this gem.

My question is regarding the following:

I have remapped the RIGHT CTRL key to work as a DEL key.

However, the key does not repeat when pressed like a DEL key would.

Is this a built in windows feature? I have windows 11 by the way. I remember I managed to do it somehow on an old windows 7 I had before, but I could not make it work on this new W11 system. Am I missing something?

Thank you so much for your kind reply.

Regards,

I saw on a few sites that Filter keys can sometimes prevent a key from repeating. Thats under Setting > Accessibility > Keyboard if you wanted to see if it's on but I would think that would prevent Delete from repeating even if you are using it on its own?

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I did check that. I tried various combinations of filter keys settings without success. It's weird because I did not have this issue on my old system. I'm also sure I only used sharpkeys to fix it, I did not use autohotkey or anything external. Could it W11 is using different scancode for the control key?

No, the scancode has been the same since Windows NT. They often add new values but almost never change existing values, because of the incompatibility that it would bring across versions.
