Keyboard keys stick in games

Are you sure sticky keys is off? It's an annoying feature they started adding in XP to help with keys sticking.
Also is your keyboard physically clean? If the button is jammed that would cause the same problem. Also another problem is the rubber/silicon contact could be stuck to the PCB

 

Windows 10 Laptop Keyboard Keys Acting Strange

Hi,

I realize that you are facing issues with the keyboard on your PC. I will try to help you with this issue.

Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to the laptop to check if that helps.

Further you may also use the onscreen keyboard to check if that helps.

Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:

• 
  Press Windows key + R to get the run window.
  
• 
  Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.
  

Keep us informed to help you further.

Thank you.

 

Clean "Sticky Keyboard keys"

Couple options for ya:

Most sticky keys are caused by debris, dust, or actual sticky substances inside the keyboard.

For debris, with keyboard disconnected, turn it over and tap firmly on the table top. Enough force to shake the Cheetos out, not enough to dislodge parts.

For dust, buy a can of compressed air and blow the keyboard out, working into the cracks between the keys. Works best holding the keyboard vertically.

For sticky substances it requires internal cleaning. This means - yes - disassembling the keyboard.
I have a saying: if it can be built it can be re-built. It may be more difficult to disassemble a mechanical keyboard and there are a lot more parts to keep track of, but it can be done - it is all a matter of the individual's mechanical abilities. If in doubt - bring it to a shop.

A note about alcohol: There are multiple types of alcohol, some more potent (and damaging to plastic) than others. But isopropyl alcohol is generally OK to use with hard plastics and electronics. Even better is 190 proof Ethyl Alcohol (Ethanol) - otherwise know as pure grain alcohol.
Best to avoid denatured alcohol as it can contain harsh petroleum solvents in some brands.

See if any of the above helps.
