Windows 10: Issue on keyboard with ' and "

Hello everyone,

Since yesterday I suddenly got a problem with my keyboard. It's about the characters ' and " .
Normally I press either of the one, then space and it's all good.
Now suddenly when I press the button it just places the character twice, even though I only press once.
Like so: ""

When I Google about it I only see people talking about how they find it annoying that they have to press spacebar after the character, but that's not my issue. I actually wanna go back to that!

I restarted my PC, I replugged the keyboard. I also tried a different keyboard and the problem was still there.
It seems to be Windows related and not my keyboard. Also tried to change the language of my keyboard but that also didn't solve the issue. It currently is on United States (international).

I did not change anything on my computer. The only thing I can think of is that I might accidentally pressed some sort of key combination, although I doubt that exists since I couldn't find anything about it.

My keyboard: Trust Gaming GXT 830-RW Avonn
My OS: Windows 10 Home x64
Windows Version number: 1909 (18363.1016)

I hope you can help me fix this issue. Thank you!
