Windows 10: Laptop's keyboard has a delay

My Laptop's keyboard has a delay on first pressing, if I will continue to press any buttons, it will be without delay, but if I will not touch keyboard somewhere 10 seconds then delay will appear again.

Windows 10 Mouse/Keyboard Delay

The above methods have not helped my issue, nor do they seem to be helping others.

I have this issue on TWO different computers:

• both have updated versions of Windows 10
• one was a free upgrade from Windows 7 (desktop)
• one was preinstalled after the initial Windows 10 launch (laptop)

Desktop -

• Custom made machine with all components updated
• Reformatted SSD about a month ago because of the keyboard delay issues
• Using a Logitech Wave keyboard/mouse wireless combo
• New batteries have been place in keyboard twice
• Logitech drivers have been updated as of two weeks ago

Laptop -

• New Dell Inspirion 3147 2-in-1 laptop bought Nov 2015
• Windows 10 Home already installed
• Standard keyboard for Dell
• Currently updated
• Will be upgrading standard HD for a SSD

Both machines are updated and, as far as I know, are using compatible drivers for Windows 10 from the manufacturer itself. I have contacted Dell in regards to this and some other issues (such as my wi-fi not connecting/cutting out when not at home or work,
touch screen issues, etc) and after troubleshooting, their suggestion was to reformat (cause apparently that's the answer to any and everything).

Again, this sounds like a Windows 10 issue by not accounting for all types of components. This delay is seriously affecting work, as I use both of this machines for work purposes. The delay has caused typos or wrong information as it takes at least 5-10
(sometimes more) for the keys to respond.

For comparison, I never had these issues with Windows 7 Pro; in fact, this is only maybe a year and a half, 2 year old keyboard and I clean it on a regular basis.

I need to know how to fix these issues for BOTH machines, not just the one with a replaceable keyboard (and if 'buy another keyboard' is the answer, I'll assume you didn't bother to read the entire post)

Hi,

I apologize for the delay in response.

I suggest you to follow the steps to open Device manager.

• • • • 
        Right Click on Windows Logo.
        
      • 
        Select Device Manager.
        
      • 
        Or, you may use the On Screen Keyboard.
        
      • 
        Right Click on Windows, Select Control Panel.
        
      • 
        Click on Ease of access center.
        
      • 
        Click on Screen Keyboard.

Disabling laptop keyboard

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

As per the description. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

I suggest you follow the steps below and check if that helps:

• Press Windows + X and select
  Device Manager from the list.
• Find Keyboards in the list of devices and click the arrow to expand it.
  
• Right-click on the internal keyboard and click Disable. If there is no Disable option listed, click
  Uninstall.
• Click File>Exit. Your laptop’s internal keyboard should now be disabled.

Note: If you had to choose Uninstall instead of Disable in step 4, the keyboard will be automatically detected and re-installed if you ever have the Device Manager scan for new hardware for some reason. If that happens you’ll need to repeat this procedure
in order to uninstall it again.

Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.
