    Hi, good day!

    To help narrow down the cause

    Are you using the built-in laptop keyboard or an external USB/Bluetooth keyboard?

    • Does the delay happen everywhere (In Notepad and your web browser), or only in specific apps?
    • Did this start after a Windows update, or did it begin unexpectedly?

    In the meantime, try to Turn off Filter Keys

    Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard.

    Make sure Filter Keys is Off.

    I look forward to your update and am willing to collaborate with you until we resolve the issue. Keep me posted by clicking "Add comments" below.
