Windows 10: I pressed "CTRL" and another unknown key and now my entire pc's sound is super low.

Whilst playing World of Warcraft, I pressed down the CTRL key and another key not sure what it was and now it seems that every sound on my PC is that of a small mouse. I can barely hear anything. I've already run the troubleshooter, checked my devices, and restarted the sound software found all this from google but nothing is working. Please help!

:)

 

My pc is automatically pressing CTRL key...

After i run step 1, my CTRL pressed for 1 min(Auto)... Then i close that and test step 2, that says you don't have any problem!

After step 3 i do not have any problem but after 5 min working with pc,my problem comes back!!!!!(I do step 4 too...)

Note: my CTRL is not pressing... It is spamming so so fastttttt!!

 

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!

 

Both CTRL keys not working

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I appreciate the troubleshooting steps you have tried to resolve the issue.

Follow the steps below and check if that helps.

Method 1: To check if Ctrl keys work in Onscreen keyboard.

Try using Ctrl keys and check if that helps.

if you still face the issue, try Method 2.

Method 2: Run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter.

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with the Bluetooth adapter. Refer these steps:

• 
  Press Windows key + X, select
  Control panel.

  Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons.

  Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel.
