A user with a hand tremor reports that single key presses frequently produce two identical characters. Type the two-word name, as it appears in desktop accessibility settings, of the keyboard feature that discards a second press of the same key when it arrives within a short interval of the first.

Machine-checked — no person has signed for it. This question was read against the source cited below by an automated pass, which found no contradiction. That is a weaker claim than it sounds: the same kind of process wrote the question, so it can confirm its own mistake.
Treat it as a good draft rather than as settled fact, and read the source below before you rely on it. It is not used in mock exams here — only questions a person has signed for are.

Case insensitive.
Why
Bounce Keys imposes a minimum interval between two accepted presses of the same key, so a physical bounce or a tremor-driven repeat is dropped. The neighbouring filter, Slow Keys, works on the other axis: it requires a key to be held for a minimum time before the first press counts, which suppresses keys brushed accidentally rather than keys pressed twice. Repeat Keys is a third setting again, governing auto-repeat while a key is held.
