Keyboard Commands not working consistently

[DannyR 35]

Just started having issues with keyboard commands not working consistently.  Particularly for GPS control.  Anyoneelse run into this?

Could you be a bit more specific, Danny? What are you trying to do, how are you trying it and what's happening?

I have shift control 9 set in the keyboard commands to toggle GPS terrain.  Sometimes it works sometimes not.  I have checked duplicate assignments.

I'm having the same issue with shift+0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. The strange thing is that it only happens with the PMDG 737 NGX, if i press shift+3 eg. and hold shift and press 3 twice CDU appears, if i press normally it won't. Not a clue

Very similar.  Puzzling.

Yeap, the only thing i can remember installing/updating is windows 10 version 1803 think it was. Previously it was working as usual

Same upgrade here.  I wonder if there is an issue with keyboard commands after the Windows 10 update?

It could be a possibility, but following some kind of logic, it should affect all my aircrafts, but it's only doing it with pmdg 737ngx.

I have moved my nvidia graphics drivers back one version and tried a couple of fixes recommended by microsoft, but, with no change.  Also, updated my keyboard drivers with no change.  Really odd.

Danny, do you use FSUIPC (registered)?, ive also updated to 5.13 the last few days, maybe we should look this ways.

Have you asked PMDG if they've run into this before? Sounds like something is capturing the keystrokes and not sending them on to the a/c.

Disable all running addons and see if the problem continues.

Also, I'd rename the prepar3d.cfg file and the dll.xml file and the standard.xml file and let P3D rebuild them. See if that change anything. Might give you a better handle on what's causing the issue.

FSUIPC wouldn't do that by itself but if you have mapped controls through it, there's a possibility of a conflict. 

Also any program that controls views, like EZCA - if that is set improperly it could affect keystrokes.

Hi,

Same here (shift+0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 does not work).

I need to click twice on the number.

It happened some days ago after Windows 10 crashed during P3D v4.2 was loading and reinstalled last version of fsuipc.

I don't have pmdg installed. I have EZCA.

tried Vic's advise, but didnt't work, so strange issue!. On my p3d it happens but only with the NGX, don't know whereelse to look, may be i format my SSD, it will repair other issues, hopefully. I'll post on pmdg forum, maybe they have a fix, last source.
