First of all, thanks a lot for the reply! I did what you suggested and turned of fast startup under Control Panel > Energy Options > Choose what the power button does. I tested the keyboard beforehand and only rarely noticed stuttering by pressing "D" no unrecognized/repeated strokes yet, though the more I did it the more…

The Microsoft-generic one. I didn't even know that there was Acer reset partition.

1) Yes, the Ws as well as Tab indentations are displaying erratically. If it had something to do with the CPU, wouldn't all keys behave this way? This also doesn't explain why hitting the key once sometimes registers as being pressed multiple times, which it also doesn't do regularly, because it fluctuates between 2-5…

On the key tester website you linked earlier. Pressing the key once would sometimes cause the key to light up multiple times, or when typing something with a "w" fast (like "windows") it would often omit the second "w".When holding down the key it would blink rapidly and irregularly instead of appearing as being pressed…

Exactly. By now, I'd assume that the stuttering and multiple keystrokes stem from the same cause. That being that when I press the key, it for some reason constantly looses the connecting, thus causing the key to be pressed multiple times even when only hitting it shortly, and causing it to feel like the key is…

The W and Tab key are the ones that aren't working properly. When holding down those keys, they sometimes stutter without pressing anything else. However pressing different keys, (D key in particular) while W or Tab are held down, seems to induce those stutters even when they're not happening by themselves, which makes it…

Only the W and Tab key. I already mentioned in the post that I've already done a fresh install of Windows, so the problems still appeared even though no games were installed. What I've done now is disable a process called "Update.exe" from startup, which led me to seeing no problems for the longest time (about 10 minutes)…

Well, mostly games where you do use the WASD keys a lot like Minecraft, Terraria, Genshin Impact, etc. So I know it wouldn't be far fetched to say that the keys are busted because of that, although the tab key doesn't get used as frequently.

Hey, JackE! thanks a lot for your response! I just checked, and yes there is a stamp from the day before I noticed the flickering. It says that it was made because of an update. Do you think I should try and reset the laptop back to that state maybe, or...?

No, it didn't. The first time the logo showed it only flashed the text for a second and went black. The second time it only displayed the Windows loading circles going around underneath the logo.
