Windows 10: My shift key on my laptop is acting up and I don’t know how to fix it

So I have a dell gaming laptop and recently my shift key keeps acting up and I’m not sure what to do about it it acts like it’s stuck all the time like when I’m playing a game I’m always sprinting which makes some games un playable but when I type I don’t have a problem with it I’ve turned sticky keys off and that doesn’t seem to fix it thanks in advance for any help!

Mouse selecting as if it is held down< and keyboard acting as though the shift key is constantly pressed< even when it"s not

To be honest i don"t know where to begin

when i use my mouse and click on text it acts as though it"s selecting everything< probably becuase **** is held down all the time

i even turned on the on_screen keyboard< and i can"t un click shift it"s constantly held down

is there a fix for this? all of the one"s i"ve found so far don"t help me>

 

Taskbar acts as if Shift key is pressed when it's not?

1 I agree that this is a problem. That context menu should only appear if shift-right-click is pressed.

2 I assume you do not have any utilities like Classic shell running that affect the user interface?

3 I suggest going to your computer maker, getting a new copy of the graphics driver & installing it.

4 Does this problem affect others users? If you don't know then create one and test it.

5 Do you have an alternative mouse/touchpad that you can try?

6 Are there any warning triangles in Device manager or any group calledOther devices?

Shift key acting up

HI,

My shift key is acting up. IT performs as if the sticky keys are on, but they are not. WHEn I press the shift key it remains on for several letters instead of only one although it is not pressed anymore. IF YOU see my typos here, you will understand what happens. If I MAKE a longer pause between the shifted key and the next key lower keys are normal. But the pause is too long FOR NORMAL USE:
