Some Keyboard Keys Presses Wrong Buttons.(It Cripples Keyboard)

Pressing P key in keyboard automatically presses both TAB and P keys.
Pressing 0 key in keyboard automatically presses both 0 and " (Either 0" or "0, it changes)
Sometimes DOT key enters :

It started to happen after installing latest Windows Update.

Especially TAB + P is crippling.

Only Screen Keyboard Functions correctly.

I tried Reinstalling Keyboard Drivers and Updating them. Didn't work.
Tried different Keyboard. Didn't work.
Controlled and tried reinstalling Turkish Q keyboard in Win10 Settings/Time&Language/Language. Didn't work. (Changed to Default US Keyboard. Removed Turkish Q. Restarted. Problem continued. Changed to Turkish Q again. Same for Default Language as well.)
Entered Safe Mode to see if other programs interfere because of conflicting Shortcuts. It doesn't change anything.

Those problems exists in Safe Mode as well, Other keyboards (except screen keyboard) doesn't change anything, drivers probably aren't the problem, Keyboard settings doesn't change anything.

I don't know what else to do. If you think, removing last few Win10 Updates would work, pls tell me.

I learned P key enters TAB + P from KeyboardTester website.

Win10 Version: 21H2 (OS Build: 19044.2006)
Keyboard is Turkish Q.

- - - Updated - - -

Uninstalling latest updates (up to 2 month worth of updates) and restarting didn't work.

 

When i press a key, and press the second key while holding down the first key, the second key doesnt work, it happens only in w,e ,;,' and up and left arrow keys
