    Hi, there's a problem with my W key on my keyboard, it seems to virtually stick down for 2.5/10 seconds, my keyboard isn't the problem, as I tested my laptop keyboard and there's still that same problem, and also switched my keyboard out for a newer one, same.The computer I'm running windows 10 on is a MacBook air, running windows 10 on boot camp assistant fine. The specs are:4 GB ram64 bit Intel i5 not sure the generation but can find out if needed and 104 GB SSD storage allocated to windows 10.Thank you for your time.

  2. Only 'W' key stucks while playing games.

    While playing games, W key have been started to stuck. I mean; when I stop to press W key, my chracter still moving forward and after 2-3 seconds it automaticly stops moving. This situtiation only happens when I press W key for 2-3 seconds. Only happens in games and only happens for W key.

    Things I tried;
    -Disabled Anti-virus, Razer Cortex, MSI Afterbunner etc.
    -Unchecked 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'
    -Updated drivers

    This problem makes impossible to play games.

    W key stuck down after i press it for 2.5 seconds not physically

    Double quotes key requires second key press.


    Thanks but the list is so confusing (it only shows non-shifted and none of the formats match (my) actual keyboard physically) and I am not sure if it is a selected Language or keyboard issue. I have now gone with English (United States) w/ UK Extended keyboard and English (United Kingdom) w/United Kingdom Keyboard, apart from five Bulgarian w/various keyboard options. The upshot is that using my Win+shift method of switching, I can never get the double quote back where it appears on the keyboard (it is always swapped with the @) which, in a sense, is fine because I never have to press a second key to get it to display and, as I used to have a 50/50 chance of hitting the correct key (" or @) , so long as I remember they are swapped, I can get it right 100% of the time.
