    ctrl key acts as if it's stuck whenever I connect graphics tablet


    I had windows 7 on my pc and for years this tablet worked normally. I tried using it on my brother's pc which had windows 10 and I couldn't do anything because the ctrl key was on the whole time even after disconnecting the tablet. I now have a new pc with windows 10 and I'm dealing with the same problem of the ctrl button acting as if it's stuck as soon as I connect the tablet.

    CTRL key acts as if it's stuck?

    Hey!

    I'm running Windows 10, and for a few weeks now, it has been acting as if the CTRL key is jammed. I replaced my keyboard with multiple others, and the problem persisted. I read a few forums, and one suggested to press both CTRL keys at the same time,
    which only worked once. Then, another said to open the virtual keyboard. This showed clearly that the keys were indeed held down, but I couldn't deactivate them from there, so it really didn't help. Are there any fixes to this?

    Computer acts as if the CTRL key is pressed down when it is not

    Hey guys,

    I've been experiencing an issue with my pc (Windows 10) recently where my computer acts as if the CTRL key is pressed down when in fact it is not. For example, typing "w" in a web browser executes the CTRL + w command, and so forth. Viewing the onscreen
    keyboard confirms that the CTRL key is pressed down. Here are the things I have tried to fix this:

    • press both CTRL keys for 15 seconds
    • turn off sticky keys, toggle keys, and filter keys
    • switch out my keyboard
    • plug my keyboard into a different usb port
    • uninstall and reinstall my keyboard drivers
    • hold CTRL + Shift for 15 seconds
    • reinstall windows
    • run system file checker

    The problem seems to be completely random, but occurs mostly when I'm running a program other than a web browser, such as a game. Any help with fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!
