    Keyboard input cutting out when holding keys down


    So basically whenever I hold a key down it cuts off after a half second, and it'll work for a few seconds, and then suddenly stop as I am still holding the key down. It became pretty annoying especially when I'm playing videogames since the character moves, then stops and then moves again while I'm still holding the key down. I thought it'd be only one key but we're talking about every single key on my keyboard.

    :)

    Keyboard input cutting out when holding keys down

    Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I'll suggest you try the following steps to repair Windows on PC to see if it resolves the issue.

    Please try the following:

    Step 1

    - Type Troubleshoot in Windows search and press Enter

    - If you can't see troubleshooters, click the Additional troubleshooters option on the right

    - Here, find Windows update section

    - Click Run the troubleshooter and wait till the process is finished.

    Step 2

    - Type Services in Windows search and hit Enter

    - In the new Windows, scroll down till you find Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)

    - If the service is running, right-click and select Restart

    - If not, right-click and select Start

    - Do the same with Windows Update service.

    Step 3

    Press Win + REnter the following and hit Enter:

    regsvr32 Qmgr.dll /s

    Open the Run dialog again and run the following command:

    regsvr32 Qmgrprxy.dll /s

    Step 4

    For this fix to work, you would have to find another Windows 10 machine of the same version (Home/Pro/Enterprise). If you have access to such a machine, do the following:

    - Access another computerType regedit in Windows search and press Enter

    - If User Account Control shows up, click YesNavigate to the following location:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\TrustedInstaller

    - Right-click on the branch and select Export

    - Choose the location, name the file trustedinstaller and click Save

    - Transfer the file to your computer

    - Once the file is on your desktop, double-click the trustedinstaller.reg to merge it with your own registry

    - Restart the PC and try updating Windows again.

    Step 5

    If none of the above helps, you can repair your Windows installation without losing files or installed apps. Here's how to do it:

    - Go to the official Microsoft website and download installation files

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...(press Download tool now)

    - Once downloaded, double-click the setup.exe

    - Accept License and Terms, select Upgrade this PC now, and click Next

    - After the necessary files are downloaded, choose Keep personal files and apps

    - Click Install (make sure that all apps are closed and not running before doing this)

    - Your PC will restart and installation finished

    Why do my keys randomly stop working?

    Hi. Sorry that the above advice did not work. You could try the following- Filter Keys. Filter keys is a tool which will prevent duplicate presses (holding down the key no longer causes multiple inputs). This accessibility tool also has a shortcut which can be accidentally turned on (pressing and holding the shift key for eight seconds). You can tell if Filter keys is enabled as it will add an icon to the bottom right of your computer.
    To disable Filter keys, open up Windows settings as listed earlier in this guide to the keyboard section of the accessibility options. Scroll down until you reach "Filter Keys."
    You can turn off Filter Keys by sliding the on/off button. (Again, it may be a good idea to disable the shortcut key by unchecking the box.)
    This should restore the normal input timing for your keyboard.

    Dirt 5 i Cant open the game

    Hi,

    I take it you can't press the green 'Let's Go' button?

    On your keyboard hold down ALT key and tap the TAB key key to switch Windows so that the 'Let's Go' window is selected. With this Window selected, press the tab key (just on it's own) to select the green button and then press enter on the keyboard.

    I had the same problem when I tried the game recently.

    How to map screen record/screenshot to Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller on PC?

    Being on PC, I have this issue as well. There is no way to map "take a screen shot" or "Start/stop Recording" to the Elite controller through the Xbox Game Bar, or Accessories App....the button mapping works fine on the accessories app, but the Game Bar application does not recognize the button inputs from the controller when attempting to assign a short cut. Short cuts must be assigned via Key Board currently, and the short cuts do not translate over IE: 'Shift - A' on the key board is not the equivalent of 'Shift-A' on the controller. To use the screenshot or recording feature on PC, I currently have quickly hit the short cut on the keyboard, then get back to the controller...very inefficient.

    Disable onscreen keyboard

    That is just for remote features on the Xbox. Not sure if this still works but you can try holding down the windows key then press escape. See if that removes the on screen keyboard.
