Windows 10: Typing lag - 1 second approx

I had the typing lag issue where I typed but the letter appears about 1 second later on Firefox, Word and Excel. and think I have solved it. I tried many other ideas but this one worked - not sure why (please enlighten if you can).
Troubleshoot the program in question. Then fix using Windows Vista compatability settings! I did this with both programs and my PC is back to normal.
I am not sure but I think this starting happening after installing Firefox.
Hope this helps.

Typing Lag after recent update

Ever since I did the latest update for my computer (it's a Windows 10 PC) I've experienced massive lag when typing.

It's not a delay - the letters will not appear after the lag. Instead it will simply not register anything during it.

The lagging happens pretty much once per second, so it happens really frequently. This makes it so I can't type fast, or several of the letters will be missing. Just typing this post was terribly hard.

If I for example spam a letter it will come through, but within a second the lag will happen and even though I'm repeatedly pressing one of the keys the typing will just "stop" on screen for maybe half a second, and then it will come through again.

I have no idea why it's suddenly like this. I've never had this happen before and I've had the computer for several years, it's ridiculous.

And before you suggest: Yes, I've tried turning on and off the 'filter keys' thing. It did not help at all.

Thankful for the help.

Second Monitor Lag

Hi
Shima Xinkai,

Outdated or incompatible drivers can be one of the factors why this issue occurs. That being said, I suggest performing the Hardware and Device troubleshooter. You can follow the steps below:

1. Type Troubleshoot in the search bar and hit Enter.
2. Look for Hardware and Devices and click.
3. Run the troubleshooter and follow the on-screen instructions .
   
4. Check if the issue persists.
   

I also recommend performing the steps in this article on how to Update drivers in Windows 10.

If you continue to have this issue even after performing the above steps, please reply to this thread. The system will notify me so I can get back to you and provide you with more answers.

 

windows 10 photo app crashes after approx 10 seconds

Hi Dave,

I do appreciate your efforts and time.

Do you receive any error message before crashing?

I suggest you to try the steps below if you have not yet tried.

I would suggest you to reset Windows store.

• 
  Right click on start and select ‘RUN’.
  
• 
  In the Run window, type WSReset.exe and click “Ok”.
  

If the Photos app is the only one crashing, it could be a problem with the Photos app database. To reset the database, perform the following:

1. Press windows button + R

2. Type: %appdata%\..\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Photos_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState

3. Delete all the contents of that folder.

Please get back to us with the required information to assist you further.
