    Windows key "Stuck" but not physically.


    I have an Asus gaming laptop and recently it has been doing this thing where I cannot type. The keys are linked to the "Hot Keys" aka WIN + D = Desktop, WIN + S = search, etc.


    - I've uninstalled keyboard drivers

    - Restarted multiple times

    - All the little tricks people suggest like CTRL + Shift + P and whatever else is out there

    - Sticky Keys, Toggle Keys, and everything else has been checked and turned off

    - I checked registry settings

    - checked every keyboard setting I can find...

    - I've checked the On Screen keyboard, no keys stuck down, and that will not type, and neither will adding a USB keyboard.

    - All drivers are updated

    - Windows is updated


    I've literally have searched around for 3 days. I think it is most definitely a software issue. I've done everything I can possibly do.


    When I start up the computer it is automatically set to the hotkey mode. Any suggestions? Minus breaking this laptop over my knee..... Remember I cannot actually type, so any instructions saying "TYPE THIS IN SEARCH" will not work ....

    :)

    Windows Key is stuck ( not physically)

    Windows Key is stuck ( not physically) .. It feels likes it is being pressed .. sometimes automatically start menu automatically opens or windows open in browser as if i m pressing the windows button ... even some time when i click some alphabets the command
    associated with that button and Win key is executed like pressing "L" locks the account or pressing "E"would open explorer.. this is becoming more frequent day by day. You would not believe but it took about half an hour to type this because of all that stuff.
    Please help me.. I am now totally irritated.. Please Please...

    Windows key "Stuck" but not physically.

    Keys are stuck down and right control key does not work (not physically)

    The control, windows, alt and space keys keep getting stuck down. I have tried using the onscreen keyboard to unclick the keys, but the control key always remains stuck. The right control key stopped working when this problem started. It still physically
    clicks.

    This makes me unable to type.

    I have restarted the computer and uninstalled the keyboard drivers but this problem still occurs. How can I fix it?
