Command Alias' AutoCAD vs Architecture

We've recently upgraded to 2025.  Some of our users use ARC (those people drawing sections and details because they like the built-in libraries) and others are using straight vanilla CAD.  We've noticed in Architecture that the keyboard command Alias's don't always work as expected. For instance "F" in CAD will give you fillet.  However "F" in ARC will give you the Fademarkup, or find...  I even checked the pgp file to ensure I wasn't going crazy.  Has anyone else had this issue?  I've got a work around, by setting the Time Delay to 100.  That will immediately bring up command list and you can select the fillet command.  it seems that once select a few times, it retains that information and will take you straight to the fillet command 99% of the time...

So it was not set to this? Or 300 needed to change to 100?

i changed it to 100.  300 was just long enough delay for the user to enter the command and hit enter before the list opened up.  Changing it to 100 immediately brings up the list.  Some users found the they needed to enter "FI" before fillet appears on the list.  But once selected it seems to retain it... most of the time.
