Windows 10: My keyboard is not working properly.

So this is the second time I have had this particular issue with my keyboard. I do not know how it fixed the first time how I fixed it or what caused it but basically it is super unresponsive. Most people automatically assume it is the keyboard but it is not I have two keyboards and the unresponsiveness is identical with both and a bug that I will explain soon even happened with the virtual keyboard that you type on with your mouse. Basically let's say I am playing a game and I press W it will just hold it for 1-5 seconds and all inputs I enter during that time happen after it has stopped. Sometimes it is completely unresponsive like when I restarted my computer which btw does not work no keys except space tab and i worked and i only made spaces when I attempted to type my password. Even the virtual keyboard you control with your mouse could only enter those keys but this fixed after restarting it again. I have also had some keys like f x v and g not work until I unplugged the keyboard and plugged it back in. I do not know what to do and it is very annoying especially when playing games. Also, I am sure this is a pc problem since after I restarted my pc my headphones are super quiet although I think this will fix if I restart again possibly. I really need help fixing this it is awful and so frustrating especially when trying to play a game where it can hold one input for multiple seconds then spam the ones I inputted while it was stalling. Any help would be appreciated but I am close to certain it is a pc problem, not a keyboard one.
