I'm experiencing a weird issue with my Bluetooth keyboard on my Windows 11 Yoga 7. Every time I hit the spacebar once, it adds a period after the space, even though the double space period feature isn't enabled. I've already tried a few things like shutting everything down and re-pairing the keyboard, and I even cleaned the spacebar. Is this a sign that the generic Amazon Bluetooth keyboard is on its last legs, or is there something else I should check? PS: Weirdly, I just noticed hitting the down arrow sometimes produces a dash. Update: I left for a meeting and came back to find it's magically fixed! Still curious about what might have caused it. Any thoughts?

Definitely make sure that the keyboard isn't physically damaged. If it seems fine, running a keyboard test on a site like keyboard-tester.com can help you see if the keys are being pressed incorrectly when you type. Glad to hear it's working again, but it’s always good to troubleshoot in case it comes back!
It sounds like there might have been a temporary glitch with the keyboard. If it happens again, make sure to check for any custom settings or hotkeys that might be interfering. Also, confirm that you have all the necessary drivers installed for the keyboard. Sometimes, minor software issues can create strange behavior like that.
Honestly, some keyboards just act up sometimes. Keep an eye on it. If those issues pop back up, look into getting a specific driver for the keyboard or checking for firmware updates. And hey, at least it’s working for now!
Also consider checking if there's any software that could be causing input issues. Sometimes third-party apps can remap keys or create unexpected behaviors. If your keyboard got magically fixed, it might just be a temporary software glitch!
