  2. Keyboard repeat delay and repeat speed

    Hi Joseph,

    I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the keyboard driver. Follow the steps to uninstall & reinstall the keyboard driver from device manager.


    • Press Windows key + X from the
      Keyboard
      and click on Device Manager.

    • In Device Manager, double click on the
      Keyboard.

    • It will show you the device driver name, select that device and then right click on it.

    • Click on Uninstall button.

    • Restart the computer, the drivers will get automatically installed on your Windows 10.

    • Repeat the same for Mice and other pointing devices.

    Hope it helps.

  4. Repeated accents when using portuguese keyboards

    Double accents ~ ´ and ^ only

    Hello,

    I regularly use the French (France) and Portuguese (Portugal) layout so that I have fast access to the keyboard layout and accents for those languages. I have no other languages installed on my version of Windows 10. The issue I'm having started about a month ago.

    Strangely, on the French keyboard I can type éç ù without issue, but I cannot use the circonflexe at all. I press the accent key and I receive two accents. Normally, I should be able to press the accent key (to the right of the letter 'p') once and then the desired letter (for instance, u) and receive û, Instead, I receive ^^. If I press the accent key and then press u, I will receive ^^u.

    Similarly on the Portuguese keyboard, I can type ç without issue, but I have the same issue as above with ~~ and ^^ and ´´. They always appear as double accents. So I get ~~a instead of ã.

    Since this only seems to affect the accents on the right hand side of the keyboard, I connected an external keyboard to see if this was a hardware issue. The issue is exactly the same. Also, this same issue is repeated on the On-Screen Keyboard (OSK). I've removed the languages (apart from English) and re-added them, but the problem persists. It must be a software or driver issue, but I'm unsure of what to test next. Any ideas?

    Thank you!
