    So I was just typing a few days ago and my keyboard suddenly started glitching out. Wasn't really sure what was going on until I went to https://codepen.io/Braxtoony/full/bGezwKr spacebar counter and noticed it went up by around 60 times a second when I hold down my space key. This only happens for keyboard and not mouse click, and from most similar problems the solution hasn't worked and I don't think it's a problem with this keyboard because I couldn't find anything on it I believe its the 'Skytech k1000'. I'm just looking for a fix because it really inconveniences all kind of game

    Hold Key Doesn't Repeat in Every Application in WIndows 10

    I am using Dell XPS13 9360 running Windows 10 with everything up to date (Windows update, Dell update, Bios, Intel Chipset, etc).

    Recently, possibly after last bios upgrade, holding keys no longer repeat properly in every applications. A few examples:

    • Office 2016 - backspace repeats but arrow and delete keys don't
    • Chrome/IE11 - nothing repeats
    • Edge - all keys repeat as expected

    I tried all the suggestions around ticking or unticking "User Filter Keys" option. It didn't solve the problem. On-screen keyboard has the same behavior

    The only way to "fix" the issue is to uninstall all keyboard drivers in device manager and reboot following the prompt. Once the PC is back up, every key repeats normal, but only till the next reboot where the issue reoccurs.

    Is there anything else I can try to solve the problem once for all?

    Holding down a key to have it repeat

    My keyboard suddenly stopped functioning. Holding down Windows Key and pressing spacebar fixed that. But then repeating a key by holding it down stopped working.
    This fixed it:
    Click Windows icon in lower left corner.

    Click Settings>Ease of Access>Keyboard
    Turn off the following:
    Toggle keys

    Sticky keys

    Filter keys
    This procedure is also said to fix situation when Windows does not respond to the keyboard at all.
