    Gray keystroke logger mimics every stroke within Windows


    All of a sudden every keystroke I touch shows up as either a command spelled out or as the actual lettering depressed on the keyboard. I cannot figure how to turn it off but am also concerned of malware. Have run several virus and malware checkers without any results. Any ideas of what this is?

    :)

    How can I turn off Keystroke logger in Preview V1803 OS1720.1

    What do you mean keystroke logger? Do you mean the handwriting and spellcheck services? I believe you can turn those off under privacy options.

    Win 10 keystrokes go bonkers


    when I hit one key sometimes it drops down a list to select from

    sometimes it takes 2 keystrokes then just hangs

    if I persist in trying Win 10 logs off and I have to log on again.

    maybe the keystroke autocompletion feature?

    Need help. My Win 10 system is now unusable until I resolve this issur.

    Using a second PC to enter this problem description.

    Any thoughts/suggestions?

    Thanks/

    Thanks for your informative post!

    I had solved my 2D & gray screen issue using advice posted by erocker (see below)
    Mainly it involves creating a profile and putting higher 2D clocks:
