setting to fix double typing, key repeat rate at slow

To resolve the double typing issue with your Razer BlackWidow V3 keyboard, adjusting the key repeat rate and delay settings can be beneficial. Here’s how you can approach this:

  1. Access Keyboard Properties:

    • On a Windows computer, press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
    • Type control keyboard and press Enter to open the keyboard properties menu.
  2. Adjust Repeat Delay and Rate:

    • The Repeat Delay controls how long you must hold a key down before it begins to repeat.
      • Long Delay: Setting the delay to "long" can help prevent unintentional double strokes since it requires a longer press before the key registers multiple hits.
    • The Repeat Rate determines how fast a key repeats once it has started.
      • Slow Rate: Setting this to “slow” will make it less responsive to quick successive presses, potentially reducing the double key press occurrences.
  3. Razer Synapse Settings:

    • If you're using Razer Synapse software, ensure that its settings do not override Windows keyboard settings. Users have reported issues with Synapse blocking or conflicting with their keyboard repeat delay/rate settings.
    • You can check the settings in Razer Synapse to ensure both the repeat rate and delay are appropriately set.

In addition to these settings, ensure to keep the keyboard clean and consider running any available firmware updates from Razer to address underlying issues. If double typing persists even after adjustments, further investigation into hardware maintenance or contacting Razer support may be necessary.
