Strange thing is I found the solution by accident….I was pressing the ‘s’’ key trying to get it to work and it displayed a snapshot on screen, to cut a long story short a program game capture by elgato had the ‘s’ key assigned to snapshot, so wouldn’t work if the program wasn’t running…..so just removed the shortcut…..so suggestion is to try I save mode, use task manager to close all running tasks…..se if it works then…..or try booting into troubleshooting mode, hold Shift while rebooting ( I think that’s how ) & Open a cmd prompt and try typing ‘p’ in there……good luck

Is it resolved now Jarod ?
Arthur ... thank SO MUCH. It appears my problem is similar to what you described .... associated with what I believe is a shortcut connected to the Pandora App. Recently I noticed a volume control box that was appearing on my desktop without any intended action on my part. The appearance of this control box seemed to align with my downloading the Pandora App and the start of my "Shift v" problem. I haven't been able to find a Pandora settings options for shortcuts, but at least I have an idea of where the problem is originating.
I used task manager to shut down all running programs. I'm still seeing the unwanted volume control box. I have about 130 background process running ... nothing jumps out as a potential culprit for the unwanted volume control box and "Shift v" problem.
suddenly could not use lower case M, article suggested app download might be problem, sure enough Free music recorder proved to be problem, mmmmmmany thanks
I had the same problem with my ‘a’ key. I found a program running ,that when I stopped it, I was able to use my a key. Hope this helps! :)

A bit more detail would help us round here. Firstly, is this a laptop keyboard, or a separate (wired or wireless) keyboard? If its a separate keyboard, does it work with a different computer?
So lower case p doesn't work. So you get P if your press shift-p? Does it make a difference whether you use the left or right shift key? And CapsLock p gives P? And does CapsLock shift-P give p?
Certainly very weird as you've described it. Could it be a software problem? Does p work correctly in a pre-boot environment, e.g. if you go into the BIOS and find a text field you can type in?

It is a Windows 10 pro desktop it works with either shift, not caps lock it works in the bios caps lock shift P does work I am typing this on my phone so I have the p. It is a wired keyboard it isn’t the keyboard it has the problem with any keyboard you plug in or connect

I had the same issue with the lowercase d. Oddly enough, the hot key was mapped to Cntl+Shift+d, but when I deleted that hot key, the lowercase d worked again.

Hey! I have this exact Problem, did you find any fix for it??

Still any fixes? I'm having the same problem on a Logitech keyboard with the letter V. "Shift v" gives nothing ... "CapsLock v" gives me V.

Same problem, but it's my C key

Oh okay, I was playing with Geforce Experience's keyboard shortcuts when this happened, as Arthur Dent said he accidentally binded the key to a snapshot keybind, everytime i pressed C it changed the game filter mode.
