Common Keyboard Issues and How to Fix Them

Keyboard problems can range from minor annoyances to major hindrances in your work or gaming. Here are some common issues and troubleshooting tips:

If certain keys aren't responding or feel sticky, try cleaning under and around the affected keys. Use compressed air to remove dust and debris, or carefully remove keycaps to clean more thoroughly.

If a single keypress registers as multiple keypresses, this could be due to switch debounce issues. Try adjusting keyboard settings in your operating system or consider replacing the keyboard if it's a mechanical issue.

If your keyboard isn't being detected, try different USB ports, check for loose connections, or restart your computer. You may also need to update or reinstall keyboard drivers.
