HP laptop with i7 and Win10-64 home. Fully patched.


Starting this summer I noticed that backspace, when editing text online (like on Facebook), got an erratic response, sometimes not deleting at all, sometimes one or two characters per a couple of seconds, sometimes quicker. However backarrow and then delete works well.


Lately I noticed also writing text is becoming erratic. Especially uppercase "D" and "8" when used by the numeric pad (but no problems from the upper row above "U".


The problems are the same on all online applications (also this text window). But NOT when editing OFFline apps like with "notepad, local-word, et.c."


I have had my vendor of AV "Webroot" analyzing it as if it was some sort of attack?, they found nothing.


I have tried to deinstall and reinstalling the keyboard driver, to no avail.


I cant be HW, as then it would not work with offline apps either. It´s not being online either, as editing this window keeps the problems when I disconnect from internet, with this window still open. But it is related to using a browser, but no specific browser, since the problems are the same with IE, Firefox and Chrome.


Problems persist when deactivating Webroot AV and Heimdal and rebooting.


I work with root cause analysis for the industry on a daily basis, but this one beats me...
