Remove your current keyboard and replace it with a known working unit. You may want to use the existing keyboard on another system and see if the issue persists there as well. I would also suggest if you can get into Safe Mode and see if the issue persists. Make sure you're on the latest BIOS update for your motherboard.

Can you list your specs like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

You have a stuck key on the keyboard. Try deleting the driver for the wireless mouse & keyboard. And then updating the driver. Was this a Logitech? If so delete the whole Logitech folder, and reload.

It's very likely a stuck key. There are a few crazy things I've heard of that can cause that also. If you can get it working, you can turn off repeated keys. It's been a while since I've seen where. But I believe it's under "ease of access" then keyboard and you might have to look around from there. Its probably easy to find. Obviously only a temporary fix.

Here is a Microsoft webpage on the topic of entering safe zone in Windows 10.

You can start the onboard keyboard at the bottom of the Windows sign in page or under the Windows 10 Ease-of -Access.

Can't uninstall drivers as it's windows driver
The sticky keys r off

I have no idea specs of computer

It is true that most typical wired mice are just plug and play. Wireless mice and keyboards often do have a driver (Logitech for example).

Good luck, perhaps the old wired keyboard was the culprit. I've certainly experienced a stuck key many times (and for no identifiable reason too). Usually fixed by randomly swatting the keys until it stops in frustration.

So ye it must've been that old keyboard I totally never even gave a thought tok
How dense

Thanks all for time and expertise and we'll wishing appreciated
