[HELP] After going Online, Keyboard starts opening programs instead of typing.

[VectorMane]

I haven't played GTA V in over a year now, and even back then, I had this problem. I would be just walking around, and then suddenly, I press a key, and it opens the microsoft store. I close that and go back in game, but I press another key, and it opens task manager. I close that too. I press a few other keys, and chrome, command prompt, steam and a ton of other programs open.

Even after force closing GTA V, the problem continues infinitely until I restart my PC.

This seems to be a problem that is exclusively generated by GTA V as far as I've read. Any way to fix this without restarting my PC every 3 minutes of playing GTA Online?

There are no faults with my keyboard, there is no corrupt files on my PC, all my drivers are at the latest versions, there's no problems at all. It just forces my keyboard to open shortcuts until my PC is turned off or restarted.

You're not running any 3th party apps like AHK or software for macro's?

this is bug in game, to be honest, it will happen if you press key combination like windows ctrl or alt and with alphabet

I only pressed the windows key, so that might be activating this problem. I also pressed the other keys as I honestly forgot most of the keybinds to this game, so I probably started it myself and not knew it.

Don't press windows keys to avoid this kind of bug, if you still getting these, don't use ctrl and alt either, shift are fine

If you get the Razer app for your desktop theres a "game" mode that disables window functions like the window key, alt+tab stuff like that if it still happens you could give that a try maybe.

Yea I'll look into that.
