    Shift button stuck but sticky keys disabled


    Hello,
    I have a weird problem where the shift is sort of "stucked" and I have to click it once to release it.
    Changed keyboard - didn't help, checked if sticky keys are on (not)

    What else could cause this?

    Thanks

    :)

    Disable sticky keys

    Sticky keys were activated by mistake.

    Press Shift 5 times to disable it is not working.

    I can not log into my laptop with Windows 10

    Please suggest another way

    Thanks

    sticky keys

    Hi,

    Sticky keys dialog box appears when you have press the Shift key five times continuously. It also lets you use the Shift, Ctrl, ALT, or Windows Logo keys by pressing one key at a time. You can set up Sticky Keys from the Ease of Access Center on the Control
    Panel. Follow the steps below:

    • Press the Shift key five times.
    • Once the dialog box appear, click the Go to the Ease of Access Center to disable keyboard shortcut link.
    • It will open the Set up Sticky Notes window in the Control Panel.
    • Uncheck Turn on Sticky Keys when SHIFT is pressed five times option.
    • You can also set the settings to your desired option.

    After doing so, check if the same pop-up will appear while playing the game.

    Get back to us if you need further assistance.
