Until the update to Mac OS Monterey 12.4 for MacBook Air 2019, I could always make accents appear by holding a relevant key and then choosing the desired accent. I need to type in multiple languages on a regular basis, making this feature extremely important for me. Now, when I attempt to use it, the letter merely repeats multiple times. How do I fix this?

Thank you for your response Kaz. The first option in the article is exactly what I used to be able to do but can no longer do. The second option requires too much time and relearning. So, I am looking for a way to restore the ability to do what the article says I should be able to do.
Thank you Tom. I have never used the Terminal app without an Apple Care rep walking me through it. Once I enter the text you put here, do I need to do anything else to activate the command, like pressing return? Or do I just enter the text and then immediately reboot the computer?
Hi,
Following article could help your question.

Pressing return is fine, can't hurt.
Thank you very much Tom. This took care of the problem.
