Windows 10: W and Shift key stuckkeeps going forward after holding for long periods

Windows 11Acer Swift 3 Laptop Whenever I hold down either the Shift or W key, both keys will continue to stay active even after letting go of the key. The duration usually varies based off how long I had held the key down but can also be random at times. I have heard other people also have had this issue due to Acer keyboards having bad membrane than other Laptops. However, the original post was made nearly 11 years ago and wanted to know if there are any fixes to this over the years. The problem is also progressively getting worse as it used to only affect the W key. Any help would really be

:)

 

Keyboard lets go of shift and ctrl keys


If I hold down shift and type a key;

CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCcccccccccccccccc

the shift will let go after a second. I plugged by keyboard into a mac and its fine there so it must be a windows issue?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Both shift keys

Hello.
I have problem with Lenovo Idea Pad 100 laptop (OS: WIN10). After replacing HDD into SSD I faced a strange problem. Both Shifts of the keyboard doesn‘t work .
I have tried to:

• Check if sticky keys are off. They are off.
• Connect external keyboard via USB port. Shift keys on external keyboard works good.
• Check the keyboard on online tester which indicates pressed buttons. It can‘t indicate press of the shift
• Change several different input languages. The problem is on all of them.
• Reinstall keyboard driver
• Check if connection is OK. It is OK.
• Tried to run computer without screws (I have read in one forum that screws could touch the keyboard from the bottom and it wouldn‘t operate normal)

I believe that keyboard is not damaged because connector damage could cause just exact part of keyboard failure, while it is impossible to do physical damage for both shifts. Any solutions?

 

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!
