Another random trick:
Try to install a new language. In my case, for example, the problem didn't get solved until I installed English (United Kingdom) Language although English (United States) was already installed.

Go into your keyboard control panel and change from the US-International layout to the US layout.
some people report:
the problem in my case is a bad right Alt key (some keyboard defect), which explains everything. Incredibly, the key gets into a pressed state even if I never touch it. Double tapping the key brings it out of this state and everything starts working as before!
2You may have a hardware failure of the laptop keyboard (test by plugging in an external USB keyboard and trying all of the keys). – Christopher Hostage – 2018-12-21T22:16:22.910
1Please click [edit] and add your laptop make and model number (get the model number from the serial number plate underneath). Also please advise which operating system (Mac OS X, Linux, or Windows) you are using, its version and release number. – K7AAY – 2018-12-21T22:50:45.057
has to be an issue in the hardware or something because I just got a usb keyboard and it works very well. I even took the keys out and there were some hairs but when I tapped on the sensor thing or something it was like the same as if i did have my key on. I also uninstall my keyboard and reinstalled it and it started working again for a bit. – William Feng – 2018-12-25T08:21:14.773
