Hi, this thing starts showing up random programs (especially Fallout 76) and when I click on one, it makes more copies of itself. It just types letters and hits enter all the time. Check that link for some examples of how it searches randomly while my Chrome is open. https://imgur.com/a/71xSfeE View: https://imgur.com/a/71xSfeE (Yes, sometimes it picks a specific line on the keyboard and later those buttons stop working.) I tried reinstalling the drivers and it stopped for a few days, but now it's acting up again. My Windows is up to date, my keyboard is a redragon k550 RGB Yama. But I'm using an old PS/2 keyboard without any problems. Any ideas?

Does keyboard work without drivers? Can you turn on RGB lights and skip using the official driver? Have you tried another PC with the same keyboard? Try this step by step and check if it causes a conflict with other apps. Try a clean boot mode and see what happens - read the guide carefully to make sure you don't turn off important Microsoft services, or Windows might not start at all - https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help...in-windows If the clean boot helps, then it's probably a startup program. You should try restarting those programs one by one to figure out which one is causing the problem.

Does keyboard work without drivers? can I set RGB on my keyboard and just not use any driver for it? Have you tried using keyboard on another PC? could try this and see if its a conflict with other software Try a clean boot and see if it changes anything - make sure to read instructions and make sure NOT to disable any microsoft services or windows won't load right here is a link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help...in-windows if clean boot fixes it, it shows its likely a startup program. You should restart the programs you stopped to isolate the one that is to blame

Hey, I guess I oughta try putting that on another computer right away. It worked the same way. So now you gotta ask if the keyboard is broken or if I can fix it myself.
