How do i config keyboard so that it works on press key down and key up events

[TwoFang]

So for 40 years i'm used to PC games triggers on keyboard down and up events i.e when i press a button it start to do something and when i release the button it stops doing that thing.
For Outerworlds I active sprint or crouch pressing the button and i deactive said function by pressing the button again. It drives me NUTS! and bascially prevents me from playing the game

Is there any any way i can configure game to behave like it should (i know its my opinion) but it is rather standard behavior for PC game to behave like that

I mean thats how the WASD key works so why not same behavior for shift and ctrl?!
Regards

I have to second this.  If you need to have a run toggle in the game,  bind, for example, Caps Lock for it, but give us normal controls for running as OP says.
