Hello, I got a cheap mechanical USB keyboard for my laptop, but I have some issues where holding down any key doesn’t acknowledge it as a “long press” but instead keeps pressing / spamming the same key
For example, using the arrow keys to move in any game makes the character movement jerky instead of the normal walk you’d expect.
Laptop’s internal keyboard doesn’t have this problem, and changing the Delay and Rate settings only affect the Laptop’s internal keyboard and not the USB one ( activating Slow Keys or Bounce Keys on Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard Filters does affect the USB keyboard but doesn’t fix the problem )
