Windows 10: Keyboard Registry Issue - "SynTP" added to "UpperFilters" on Restart

Keyboard Registry Issue - "SynTP" is being added to "UpperFilters" on Restart in:



Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e96b-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}



"SynTP" has to be manually removed to ensure keyboard is working, otherwise windows fails to install the keyboard driver and the keyboard is not working after restart.


Machine: Lenovo X1 Carbon 7th Gen 20R1 Model



Symptom: Keyboard is not installed: Code 19 driver error



This is a migrated Windows installation, so it could be caused by an older Lenovo or Synaptics driver that I failed to remove; but I am having a hard time troubleshooting this.

Caution: There can be many instances of the registry subkey that is mentioned in step 2. You must make sure that you are in the appropriate registry subkey before modifying the UpperFilters and the LowerFilters values.
