    Keyboard pressing two keys at the same time


    I was playing Genshin Impact when my keyboard started pressing two keys at the same time. I went to type right after and instead of just space it pressed space + t, same goes for pressing t. Like theyre interlocked. I already tried that keyboard tester and it registered exactly the same. How can i fix this?

    :)

    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.

    Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.


    • Since when are you facing this issue?

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    • And check if it works
    Step 2: Run Hardware and device 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 your devices. Refer these steps:


    • Press Windows key +X, select Control panel.

    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 keys and the keyboard itself are functioning properly. This leads me to believe the issue might be software-related, possibly within Windows 11 or a conflict with another application.

    Here's what I've tried so far without success:

    • Updating and reinstalling keyboard drivers.
    • Running the built-in Windows troubleshooter for keyboards.
    • Checking for malware and Windows updates.
    • Modifying keyboard-related settings in Windows, including disabling Filter Keys and Sticky Keys.
    None of these steps have resolved the issue. I'm reaching out to see if anyone else has experienced something similar or has any suggestions on what else I can try to fix this problem. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.
