Windows 10: Keys getting stuck on as I play games and use the computer generally.

Often, but not exclusively, they are lesser used keys. This problem has now been an issue across 3 different nearly brand-new or newer keyboards, with up-to-date drivers. The keys are not sticking, physically, either. Sticky keys is off and the shortcut is off.I am using an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G, with a GTX 1660, and generic RAM for 16gbs, running Windows 10 Pro. I have used two EVGA and one SteelSeries keyboard.

Only 'W' key stucks while playing games.

While playing games, W key have been started to stuck. I mean; when I stop to press W key, my chracter still moving forward and after 2-3 seconds it automaticly stops moving. This situtiation only happens when I press W key for 2-3 seconds. Only happens in games and only happens for W key.

Things I tried;
-Disabled Anti-virus, Razer Cortex, MSI Afterbunner etc.
-Unchecked 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'
-Updated drivers

This problem makes impossible to play games.

 

Only 'W' key stucks while playing games.

I cleaned W key but nothing changed. Although I have a theory; I am using my laptop's keyboard and under WASD keys there is a GPU and when playing games this part of keyboard gets hot. With heat something inside W key can become sticky and that maybe casue W key to stuck. I don't have a seperate keyboard but my first job is find one and testing with that one. I saw this stuck problem with Dying Light, Elder Scrolls Online, Kİngdom Come Deliverance.
