Windows 10: What could be causing this keyboard shortcut issue?

I can't ctrl-shift-escape to bring up task manager if i use the left ctrl or left shift.

I can do it find using any combination of left and right keys. I can see on keyboard testers that the inputs are working so it's obviously not the left side keys being broken or anything, but i can't left ctrl+left shift+escape to bring up the task manager.

anyone got any idea what to look at to fix this?
