    can't uninstall hid keyboard even after going to gpedit.msc


    Hello everyone thank you so much for reading this;

    I've got a weird bug that started out three days ago, the built in keyboard of my lenovo laptop had both of its shift keys pressed and concurrently the mouse was selecting everything, I've basically tried every little thing that I could - short of admitting mechanical failure.

    I've narrowed it down to the extra buttons my mouse has and that Windows considers it an HID keyboard which I think is causing the bug, I've downloaded a gpedit.msc (from the internet - I'm using W10 home edition) but after enabling 'Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings' and uninstalling the HID keyboard it still shows up even after rebooting.

    Albeit I'm not too sure if this will fix my keyboard bug I'm at the end of my rope and any help is very much appreciated.

    Hi i would like a screen shot of your device manager with the keyboard and mouse sections expanded. i do not think your mouse is going to be listed as a keyboard. is the shift keys still stuck?

    It's one of those "gamer" mouses with extra buttons and I've found a similar case on the internet - I don't have an extra mouse at the moment because I'm in the countryside of Brazil and I just can't leave rn.

    It's fine now after following this guide (Windows computer repair and maintenance — Decent Security) but it's flaring up sometimes while I play mouse heavy games like league of legends
