Windows 10: Keyboard Input Not Recognized After Releasing One of Multiple Pressed Keys on Windows 11

Hello,I'm experiencing a peculiar issue on my Windows 11 system where the keyboard does not seem to register continuous input from a key if another key was pressed simultaneously and then released. For example, if I press and hold down 'JK' and then release the 'K' while still holding down 'J,' the system stops registering the 'J' input unless I release and press it again. This behaviour is consistent across various key combinations and is not specific to any particular set of keys.Interestingly, when testing this with my keyboard's software, all inputs are registered correctly, indicating the

Keyboard and mouse inputs cancel if holding and multiple inputs cannot be used at the same time

I updated Windows 11 yesterday, and now my mouse and keyboard do not work properly. I first noticed the issue while playing Minecraft, but I can not press multiple keyboard keys at once, such as pressing ctrl and w to sprint in-game, if I try to do so, the first input pressed is canceled and I have to press it again to continue moving. Key combinations will work for maybe a second or less before the first input is cancelled. Mouse inputs also interrupt keyboard inputs. I can only capitalize letters if I press the key combination very quickly. Held mouse inputs also cancel after a few seconds, such as dragging and dropping an icon or trying to highlight text. In device manager it says my keyboard is not plugged in even though it is my integrated laptop keyboard. I have tried reinstalling and updating drivers, but nothing works. The only thing left I can think to do is reinstall Windows. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thank you

Shift Key and Number key cannot be pressed at the same time.

Hello,

There are several factors why you are unable to use the shortcut keys function such as keyboard settings, or if there is an issue with the keyboard itself. To help you resolve this, kindly try the following suggestions:

• You might have selected an input language other than English. To work around with this, go to
  Control Panel > Region and Language and check. You can also check if your keyboard has a language selection available that may need to be changed.
• We suggest as well that you reset the keyboard layout by reinstalling the language and check if it fixes the issue. Follow the steps below:

• Press Windows+R keys and type intl.cpl. Hit Enter.
  
• Go to Administrative tab and click on
  Change system locale button.
• Select the correct language and country from the drop-down box.
• Navigate to the location tab and check if region settings are appropriate.
• Apply the changes and Windows will require a reboot.

Inform us for any updates regarding the issue so we can assist you further.
