My laptop is typing multiple letters when I press a single key on the keyboard. For example, when I press the backspace bar it comes up with a hashtag and when I press the letter G it comes up with bgt5fv4r. I’ve tried pressing the num lock key and nothing has worked, also looked in keyboard settings and all of the settings for sticky keys etc are off. Not sure what to do at this point!!
