So, a few months ago my escape key stopped working in games. I thought this was just a temporary thing, so I left it. Next thing I knew it starts to become unresponsive in other applications for example Google Chrome. I have looked through the internet and have tried many things like, reinstalling drivers, uninstalling certain apps, removing startup programs and a few more things. The only thing i can do to "fix" it is to spam escape, 2 and W, then it will be responsive again, but if i do anything in the game again, it will become unresponsive again.

 

Please help me.

Your actual keyswitch might be broken, try another keyboard

You mean the second keyboard had the same issue? Or that plugging a second keyboard didn't fix the issue with the first one?

The same issue happened on the second keyboard, that is why I think it is a software problem.
