Q: Accents no longer appear when key is held down

When I used to hold down a key (such as e) a list of different accents would appear that I could select. Now, when I hold down the same key the letter repeats instead? I haven't changed any settings so not sure why it no longer does this. Any solutions?

 

Thanks,

Ben
