My computer was working fine, But when I tried to write a message back to a friend on facebook, Every time I made a Key Stroke I would hear a clicking sound come from my computer and nothing would be typed on my computer, I have tried everything I could think of to fix this problem but nothing has worked, When I hold down the Key after it clicks a second time it will type the letter out on the screen, But I can not write messages like that, it would take me an hour just to right a few words, I am using Windows 8.1 Pro.

Any Suggestions???

This may happen if Filter Keys are on.

Open Control Panel > Ease of Access\Ease of Access Center > Make the keyboard easier to use

Here scroll down to "Turn on Filter Keys" option

De-select "Turn on Filter Keys"

Select the "Apply" button and "OK"

This was a life saver thank you very much for posting this

Was very hopeful that this would help me but unfortunately my filter was already off any other ideas? I though that it was my laptop keyboard had the problem and bought a wireless keyboard only to be the same problem. It is very frustrating to always go back and correct it.
 I am running windows 8.1n an HP laptop. Consider windows 10 if nothing else works.
