This is so weird! I bought BlackWidow V4 Low Profile 3 months ago, and my LEFT CTRL started misbehaving. Just found this thread. Have they fixed it for you?

 Hello Screinius,

I’ve responded to your message. I understand that your Razer BlackWidow V4 Low-Profile HyperSpeed's left CTRL key is not responding as expected. To help identify the issue, allow me to ask a few questions:

1. When did the issue first occur?
2. Does the problem persist when connected via Razer HyperSpeed Wireless (2.4 GHz), Bluetooth, or Type-C?
3. Does the issue occur when Razer Synapse is not installed?
4. Does the problem happen on a different computer?

Please try to perform the troubleshooting steps laid out below:

  1. Clean the keyboard using a clean microfiber cloth and compressed air.
  2. Connect your keyboard directly to the PC and not a USB hub.
  3. Get the latest Windows update.
  4. Disable Razer Synapse and test the keyboard. If the issue persists, it is likely a switch issue.
  5. If closing Razer Synapse fixed the issue, reinstall your keyboard drivers, and perform a clean reinstall of Razer Synapse.
  6. Check if the issue persists with a different PC.
