To assist you better please provide me with the Notebook Model or Product Number

Meantime please run a Keyboard Test to confirm the Hardware Functionality
- Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
- Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second.

Thanks for keeping me posted
Since the Keyboard works fine during the Test, try updating the BIOS from this Link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-15-ac600-notebook-pc-series/9329955/model/107618...
Also perform a System Restore to an earlier time before this issue started
- Select the Start button, type control panel and then choose it from the list of results.
- Search Control Panel for Recovery.
- Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next.
- Choose the restore point prior to the start of the issue and then select Next > Finish.
Keep me posted
Thanks 😊
