Hello everyone, my problem is that when I press the q key on my keyboard, it's not just that key that activates but also all the keys in that row (so shift qsdfghjklmù* enter 456+).
I'm on Windows 11.
The problem does not come from my keyboard because sometimes it works but then it starts again.
Thank you in advance.

Hello,
I think, although I am not absolutely certain, that it is actually a malfunction of your keyboard (the membrane that supports the circuits corresponding to the keys may be making a poor connection specifically on that row.
One way to check is to connect a desktop keyboard. If it works, you should consider replacing yours.
I tested my keyboard when it wasn't working with my PC on my brother's PC and it worked, and when I went back to my PC it was working.
It's strange, sometimes it works; in my opinion, your theory is the right one.
It's not your keyboard (possibly defective) that needs to be tested elsewhere; it's another keyboard that should be plugged into your PC. Furthermore, they can be found for between 15 and 20 euros, but it's best to check before buying that it's indeed a malfunction of this keyboard.
