CTRL and SHIFT keys not working
So I've encountered this problem yesterday's evening and it is getting so much annoying. Basically, when playing games, my SHIFT and CTRL keys to crouch or walk/run, ain't working. But doing stuff like CTRL+V or maybe hold shift to capital letter, it works.
I've tried so many things, such as:
- Activating and deactivating Sticky Keys
- Unplugging and replugging usb
- Plugging USB in another USB port
- Googling the problem and looking for help.
All games that I've tried, such as Left 4 Dead 2 to crouch or walk, Minecraft to duck and Garry's Mod to run or crouch, have this problem.
I saw people having my exact same problem on the internet, but people would just ignore the discussion at a certain point.
Help me please.

Yes, in the options the commands are set as default. I also tried to bind the key in the console, but nothing.

I'm not having this issue on csgo, and it also does it on minecraft, which is not a steam game.

Have you tried it on the game though with that way. Also, does your ctrl work anywhere else? like in chrome?

I did it and it worked on Left 4 Dead 2
Maybe your trivial idea wasn't bad at all.
By the way, I'm gonna let you know if running as administrator works on other games too. Thanks!

No problem!

So I tried with garry's mod and minecraft, but only garry's mod worked.
By the way, I only used minecraft to test this bug, so the issue is fixed anyway. Thank you a lot.
