Left Shift Key Problem with Standalone

Recommended Posts

so since buying and playing Dayz Standalone my Left Shift key has stopped working on everything outside the game. In game Left Shift works fine. But outside the game it works on nothing.. Typing, other game, even when testing my keyboard online to see if the key is working. But as soon as i get back into the Standalone it works fine in game. Have tried a second Keyboard same issue and even deleted Dayz and reinstall same issue! Running Windows 7. Any help would be most appreciated!

That's an odd one, if Sticky Keys in Windows is enabled then try disabling them:

Control Panel > Ease of Access > Keyboard > Un-check Sticky Keys

okey this is really weird.

please test both key boeards on another computer and see if shift key works. also test the key board in another game and see it works there too or not.if the key board works fine in in another computer and doesn't work in another game, so it's dayz for sure and you should report it in dev tracker.

if the problem is dayz and unistalling it does not solve the issue, i think it's a registery mess. make sure clean dayz with a software that clean up related registery changes or use a registery fix software.
