My shift key remained press for too long after I pressed it, eg. for writing a capital letter we use shift+letter simultaneously but in my case shift pressed and after that any letter i press it is capital. this causing me a problem with writing as shift key pressed by mistake many times.

give me the solution ASAP

    Can you check to be sure that the key itself is not stuck down? Also is the caps lock on?

    Restart your computer a few times to see if it helps.

    Open Start > Settings > Update & security > Troubleshoot

    Scroll down

    Click Keyboards

    Click Run the Troubleshooter

    When complete, restart to see if the problem is resolved.

    Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port if its a USB wired keyboard.

    Press Windows key + X

    Click Device Manager

    Expand Keyboards

    Right click keyboard

    Click Uninstall

    Exit Device Manager then restart

    Reset your BIOS defaults:

    Try the keyboard with another computer to see if it works.

    Check for the latest driver updates for your computer.

    Try disabling the RAID settings in the bios.

    My apologies I believe I may have misunderstood the original question. As I understand it now you press Shift and the first letter after is Capital but then the letters go back to lower case? That it the normal function of the shift key. If you wish all letters to be capitalized you would want to turn on caps lock or on a tablet ling press the shift key for about 5 seconds to turn on a caps lock like function
