Windows 10: Hey, so when i press a key it makes a sound. And i can only backspace once. What did i do?

So i was playing a game. Then out of nowhere my keys stared to make a clicking sound when i pressed them. Now my keyboard is messed up and i can only backspace once

:)

 

Ctrl + A + Backspace acting as home key

I think you lost a character in the question, about what shows up in Notepad.

When I tried Ctrl+A+Backspace in Notepad, I got the same results as pressing Ctrl-Backspace. (This did generate a character that looked like a thin, tall rectangle.)

I can suggest three approaches:

• Try altering your behavior. Use Ctrl-A and Delete, instead of Ctrl-A and Backspace.
  
• Try a different keyboard. (This may ultimately end up having the effect of altering your behavior a bit. Another possible effect is to eliminate ghosting issues that may occur when too much is pressed simultaneously on some keyboards. Although I'm suspecting that your current issue is unrelated to keyboard ghosting.)
  
• Use the downloaded software AutoHotkey to respond to Ctrl-Backspace by having it automatically press Ctrl-A and then either Backspace or Delete. Hopefully the software will be responsive enough to be able to complete its actions before Windows processes your next keystroke.
  

 

Backspace key and arrow keys are not working properly.

Hey Everyone,

I recently noticed that holding down backspace only erases 1 letter at a time. It used to be much quicker and would erase whole lines when held down long enough. same in the case of arrow keys to. I am on windows 11 and have turned off filter keys. Any suggestions?

 

Sound when pressing 'u' key

Hey guys,

I've been having this weird issue where the 'u' key on my laptop (running windows 10) makes a beeping sound when pressed.

It makes a sound when pressed down and a slightly different sound when released.

Does anybody know why this is happening or how I can fix it?

Thanks!
