Windows 10: Keyboard Crashes whenever run program as Admin

Pretty straightforward, my keyboard crashes whenever I run a program as administrator. Unplugging it, resetting the drivers etc, doesn't work. If I sign out, it works again on the user screen and I can run it again. It just stops responding, e.g. if in numlock mode the numlock light on the keyboard stays green no matter what I press.

Only thing I can think possibly related within the last few weeks, (But can't be 100% sure it's related), I set up filter keys/sticky keys/toggle keys a while back for some game, but then it completely went AWOL on me and wouldn't let me disable it, even when changing the sign-in settings, nothing would save. This would cause a lot of problems when I didn't need it with other games where I had to use those keys. I deleted all the registry keys for ease of access centre in the end.

Any ideas how to troubleshoot? Thanks

I recommend you reinstall Windows 10:

Go to a working computer, download, create a bootable copy, then perform a clean install.

Review the following guide for instructions and details about configuring your BIOS or UEFI boot settings for DVD, CD, USB or SD Card.

Once your computer is set to boot from the DVD, you should see this option. If you are installing from a retail Windows 10 USB thumb drive, you will be asked to select either 32 or 64 bit Windows 10. Learn more here

The Windows logo will appear on screen, this might be here for a while, as long as you see the animating dots, everything should be ok.

Select your Language, Time and Keyboard method then click Next.

Click Install now

Windows 10 setup will prompt you for a product key during installation a couple times. If you originally upgraded from Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 click the option 'I don't have a key' and 'Do this later' . If you have a Windows 10 product key, you can proceed
to enter it.

Setup will also prompt you to select the edition you have a license for - Home or Pro. Please make sure you choose the right edition. If you choose the wrong edition, your only option will be to perform a clean install again.

The copy of Windows 10 you download and upgrade from will correspond with the edition of Windows you have installed, if it does not, this is why you might be experiencing problems activating:

Windows 7 Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Windows 8.0 Core, Windows 8.1 Core should install Windows 10 Home

Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate, Windows 8.0 Pro, Windows 8.1 Pro should install Windows 10 Pro

Wait while setup prepares to copy files

Accept the license terms then click Next

Click Custom: Install Windows only (advanced)

NOTE: Sometimes Windows 10 setup can become confused if it see's a thumb drive. You might get a driver missing error or something to that effect. If you do, restart setup, but this time, when you arrive at the following screen, disconnect your thumb drive then
go through Custom options. When setup is ready copy files, it will prompt you to reconnect the installation source (your USB).

Select the drive then click New

NOTE: If you have multiple partitions listed, select each one (starting at the bottom), then click delete until there is only a single (one) unallocated drive displayed in the window.

Select the unallocated drive listed, click New, click Apply then OK

This will split the drive into multiple partitions, select the Primary partition then click Next.

NOTE: The System Reserved partition is where recovery files are kept for diagnostics and repairing damaged Windows 10 files; or even reinstall Windows 10.

Wait while Windows installs

When this phase of setup is complete, Windows will automatically restart then reboot into setup again.

Windows is detecting and installing your hardware. After this is complete, Windows will restart one last time.

Out of Box Experience

The Out of Box Experience page is where you get to configure detailed settings in Windows, which includes creating a user account, configure privacy, sync PC settings and install modern applications.

 

Can you replicate the error on a different Windows account? If you can't, I'd say your account is corrupted.

Here's a link demonstrating how - Corrupt User Profile: Fix for Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10

 

Hi, a new account worked fine. I tried following the corrupt user profile fix steps, to no avail.

However, I then copied the accessibility registry keys I deleted from the new user to my current profile, and this fixed the problem. However, my ease of access centre is still messed up (on both profiles).





This page is the main issue, unticking the boxes and pressing apply sends me back but if I go back on it, the settings aren't saved! Which is really frustrating because sometimes I switch my PC on, log on quickly for a gaming session and forget these keys are on, and sometimes it can be costly.
