    I dont know when this began but my computer seems to think i am holding down an arrow key. Restarting my computer fixes it temporarily but it always comes back and its sometimes a different direction arrow key.

  2. down arrow key stopped working

    My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

  3. Can't hold down my right arrow key

    I have a really annoying problem with my right arrow key.

    Sometimes i want to hold down the arrow key so that it repeats but lately it does not work anymore.

    If i press it once it fuctions well but if i want to hold it my laptop thinks i pressed the button and then removed my finger

    I see a lot of people mentioning Filter Keys but i don't know what that is and i cant find it anywhere on my laptop...

    Please if someone knows the solution of this please reply on this...

    arrow key problem

    Hi,

    Your concern with the arrow keys can be due to the configuration of either the keyboard and/or the computer. To better understand your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • If the specified device is a desktop or a laptop.
    • The make and model of the keyboard that you're using.
    • If you've tried using a different keyboard.
    • If you've installed programs that can bind keyboard keys.
    • The version and build of Windows 10 that you're using on your device. To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this
