    One of my key doesn’t work without holding shift


    My “o” key doesn’t work on the keyboard after the update but when i press “shift”key and “o” key it works and prints a capital “O” or if i hold ”o” key then press “shift” key it prints a “o” I tried deleting all keyboard devices hidden ones too in the device manager, then I restarted the computer and everything remained as it was, this problem has been around for about 3 months, I tried restoring the computer to its previous settings, it didn’t help. I checked the driver updates for my keyboard - also no. By the way, I connected 2 other keyboards, and the 'o' key does not work on them either

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    Shift key not working when holding down a key

    Hello,

    I got a new pc today and i realised i couldnt sprint properly in any games. I changed keyboards thinking that was the problem but I still wasnt able to sprint.

    When holding down a key and I press shift, the key i was holding will stop typing and nothing happens. I double tap shift (which sometimes works) and then the next keys will be an uppercase. or when i try get an uppercase letter, i hold shift and press the
    key once and it still wont work.

    I reinstalled the drivers, turned off sticky keys.

    If anyone could help me, that would be much appreciated!

    One of my key doesn’t work without holding shift

    Shift Key Not Working.

    Hello.

    I have a Shift Key that doesn`t work. I have checked and the key pressed down finely so I don`t believe its whats making my keyboard slightly broken. I believe it is the software fault for making a key unusable on my laptop because both of my Shift Keys
    do not function as intended. But whatever it is, I am tired and done with the On-Screen Keyboard and I just want to get my physical keyboard back into order. If you could please find me a solution, that would be greatly appreciated.

    For context, here is the computer I am using.

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Laptop: HP Pavillion G6.

    Thank you for reading.
