Question “The Shift key interrupts the continuous press of other keys.”

Hi, I recently bought a Dareu A98 Pro II and while gaming I noticed a really strange issue. Basically, when I hold down SHIFT and then press another key (the classic Shift+W to run), everything works as expected. But if I'm already pressing a key (W) and then add SHIFT, that action interrupts the continuous input of W. So essentially, when I'm walking and decide to start sprinting, I stop instead... I tried uninstalling the keyboard drivers and restarting the PC, but it didn’t help. I don’t see any option in the DAREU app to manage this behavior, and nothing relevant in the Windows keyboard settings either.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
 
UPDATE:
I tried to connect my old mechanical keyboard that never showed this kind of problem but now it has the same.
Than I connected the new keyboard to my Linux laptop and on Linux the pressure of SHIFT doesn't interrupt the pressure of other keys. The problem is of Windows 11 but how to solve it?

This is not a "Windows 11" problem.
It does exactly the same in Win 10. And almost certainly earlier Windows versions.

sorry but I don't understand... for years I played games and while walking with W and adding the pressure of SHIFT I started to run. Now I just stop. How can be that normal?

That may be a case where the controls in the game override what Windows does.


But (just tested).....in Notepad, holding down a key (w?) and pressing SHIFT stops the w repeating.


But the basic keyboard functions have not changed between 10 and 11.
