I have a Logitech k120. Its a new keyboard. Sometimes it automatically presses buttons like "fffffffffffffffff" and backspace or any other button! I tried to uninstall the driver and rebooted. Troubleshooted, but no improvement

Do you press a button and it gives you a lot of that, or is this without you doing anything?

If it's giving a lot of something you press, go to your Keyboard settings and look at the repeat wait and repeat rate. In Windows that's Control Panel-->Keyboard-->Speed. If the Repeat Wait is very low and the Repeat Rate is very high, then a momentarily longer push on one key could result in a long string of it.

Hey! I happen to have the exact same keyboard and also the exact same issue. To further elaborate on the issue, it is not when we type something that it randomly types in a long string of a particular key; it just does it by itself, even when not in use. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. I am sorry if I am doing something wrong in this forum; I have only started today. Cheers!
