Windows 10: Keyboard Input Problem

I have this issue for quite a while. When I start my laptop I can type my password and all is going well. A few minutes later of browsing and surfing, my laptop stopped taking inputs from its inbuilt keyboard. Tried it on windows search bar, notepad, browsers all that needs keyboard input but doesn't take any input at all even from its on screen keyboard. Tried to follow some fix tips shared on the internet that others shares that it worked on them, by running ctfmon.exe. Now a few keys worked but other keys are not and some shortcuts popped up when these keys are pressed. At the same time I can't open folders/files when it needs to be double clicked as it would show properties instead. Is this a bug ? Or an update issue ? Is there any other way to fix this ? Can't use my laptop anymore. Help.
