I lost the ability to have keystrokes repeat by pressing a key longer. Now I
have to enter a key repeatedly. Does anyone know how to restore that feature?

This is an accessibility option that's turned on by holding down the right shift
key for more than 8 seconds.

Start menu Control Panel Accessibility Options uncheck "Use FilterKeys".

To prevent accidentally triggering this again, click the Settings button and
uncheck the "Use shortcut" box.
