Hotkeys Open Random Programs During Game. [SOLVED]

[CxxxCUPS]

While in a game, my hotkeys (e.g. a= build mass extractor, s= build pgen) work 90% of the time. Sometimes I will push a key to build something and, SUPRISE! Microsoft Speech Assistant will open and my game will alt tab. Then I must alt tab back to the game like nothing happened. Eventually, this problem will slowly take over to all the keys I use.

I also can't use chat - when I push buttons on keyboard random-unpopular-shit-Microsoft programs will open. I revert back to mouseclicks like a day 1 Noob.

What should I do to fix? It is VERY FRUSTRATING

I have no mods - IDK how to even install mods ;(
This happens on 2 Computers I FAF on (giggity) - work and home computers, both decent.
This happens even after I do a fresh restart on my computer and FAF is first program opened.

Please help.

I don't know if that's too obvious to mention, but this is obviously not a FAF problem. Something in Windows must be doing that.

go here : Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Ease of Access Center\Set up Filter Keys
Remove all the keys that are selected, don't forget the items "Set Up...", click on them and disable
problem solved

Thanks Speedy! I unchecked some boxes under "make keyboard easier to use". I think this will fix it since Ease of Access contains the programs that pop up (e.g. narrator, speech recognition, magnifier).

I guess if you hold shift for 8 seconds then it gets activated...guess I take too long to plan all those build orders xD
