Help, Enter Key is not functioning properly

Hi All.

I have a weird issue with my Keyboard at the moment. Currently using ROG Claymore keyboard which has two enter keys.

If I use the main enter key then it's like a short cut gets executed where the cursor will return to the search bar and then a string of letters are typed. m,nbvcxvnmk,l. Same if I use the search bar in windows.

However, if I press enter on the KeyPad then the enter function works normally. I have uninstalled the keyboard, reinstalled drivers but alas the same issue. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Do you have the software installed for it? Sounds like a macro has been recorded for the key, the software should let you change or remove it.

Clean the keyboard
Turn it upside down too and give it a good shake
Sometimes something gets under the key

That's weird. Two things, I did remove all of the keys and cleaned the keyboard BEFORE this started happening. Second thing, Windows did a driver update as well last night specifically for this keyboard only :s

Unplug it, stick it in another USB port. Try again.

Can roll back the driver in device manager
If that doesn't work doubt it's a coincidence that you had the keys off and
Cleaned it
Perhaps something got wedged somewhere while cleaning it
