hi, I have a similar problem…ctf is running,but for some reason some keys stops working ( 6-7-y-u-h-j-n-m-) and later start working again.

– ctfmon added in startup
– ctfmon added in run (regedit)
– sfc scanow no problem encountered
– microsoft image check ok
– avast premium no virus found
– microsoft malware and safety scanner ok

quite sure it is not an hw issue, seems like something is interfeering with theese keys…

Unfortunately, the problem is intermittent for me – cftmon.exe loads normally, but at some random point stops running, causing my keyboard to stop responding mid sentence whenever in an Edge browser window (meanwhile Chrome Browser and other non MS apps are still fine)

Thank you so much for this. It’s alarming that Microsoft are able to leave a problem like this hanging for so long.
There are countless examples of people experiencing this problem on forums & Microsoft themselves prove unable to provide this answer themselves & it fall to the likes of your expertise. Thanks again, very grateful
