1

Open Command Prompt, then run this command and press Enter:

msdt.exe -id KeyboardDiagnostic

Run that Keyboard Troubleshooter to see if that can solve the problem.

2

If that does not resolve this for you

Open Device Manager

Expand the Keyboards section

Right click your keyboard and choose 'Uninstall'

Then restart your PC

3

If the problem is still not resolved:

Open the Settings App, then go to Windows Updates - Update History.

What is the KB number of the last couple of updates installed.
