Abridged version

  2. Right-click then click "Properties" (or gear icon on deck)
  3. Under "Launch Options" put -console

How I did it

  1. Go to Steam library and click "The Stanley Parable"
  2. Right-click then click "Properties" (or gear icon on deck)
  3. Under "Launch Options" put -console
  4. Open the game and begin the game
  5. Press `/~/tilde to open console
  6. Type _u
  7. Type cmd2 _u
  8. Close console and resume game
  9. Quit to menu
  10. Open console again and type bind x _u

Why it works

_u is what triggers the achievement. Typing it into console alone will typically not grant the achievement, instead triggering "Hey don't you even try". Putting cmd2 _u instead should bypass this. You can also try putting bind x _u or whatever key you want. If none of these work you can of course edit the config files which just binds a key to _u anyways. cmd2 _u alone should be all you need.
