    My laptop randomly spams the dot key from time to time, how do I fix this?


    This problem arised yesterday, with the problem randomly showing up as soon as I booted up my laptop.At first I didn't notice anything strange, until I opened up my browser and tried to type something in the search bar, that's when I noticed a bunch of dots were being typed with no input from me as if something was holding down the dot key.The problem was temporarily fixed by simply pressing the dot key on my laptop's keyboard I have two keyboards, an USB keyboard and a laptop keyboard.I thought this was a browser problem, so I tried opening a notepad, same problem.I tried checking if someth

    Hi Roman,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand your inconvenience. We will assist you with it.

    I suggest you to change the Date and Time format from Control Panel and check. Also select the time zone as UTC-5.00 Eastern Time.


    After changing the setting, I suggest you to set “Windows Time” service as automatic. Follow the steps provided below.

    • Press Windows logo Key + R key.
    • Type services.msc
    • Right click on Windows Time service.
    • Select Properties.
    • Under startup type drop down, change it to Automatic.
    • Click on Apply button and OK button.
    Restart your computer and check.

    Hope this information is helpful. For any further query, feel free to contact us.

    Keys randomly keep spamming

    Hi KeiKei_617

    Sorry, I am out of ideas, if that is still spamming on the on-screen keyboard when you keyboard is disconnected, then that indicates your keyboard is okay and this is a software issue, hopefully someone else will come along with other suggestions on a fix .

    My laptop randomly spams the dot key from time to time, how do I fix this?

    my mouse keeps randomly spamming

    My mouse drivers are all updated and my mouse doesn't seem to be dirty/dusty at all, but sometimes, randomly, whenever im clicking, my mouse will just spazz out and spam right click. I'm not accidentally touching it, it just randomly spams the right click on its own. This happens pretty frequently, i dont measure the time between but if i had to guess it probably does this every 5 minutes.

    I think its a hardware issue, but im really not sure whats going on here. pls tell me a fix
