Issue with Blackwidow V3 Pro or maybe Synapse? | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
System: windows 11

Gear: Blackwidow V3 pro

Game: Overwatch (didn't happen to my other games)

App: Synapse 3 lateset version, chroma connect + chroma studio

Frimware: lateset version



Issue: every 10-15 mins, my keyboard will glitch, the key will attach with some stupid function. For example, if i press 'S', windows search bar pops up, or if i press 'Tab', window switch pops up.



What did I try: reinstall synapse, doesn't work. I even reintall the whole system, still not work.



It happens to my other Razer keyboard as well, does anyone know how to fix this issue? its killing me :(



(sorry, english is not my first language, hoep you guys understand what am I talking about...)



Thanks!
Does it do the same without Synapse running?

Or did you tried other PC (also without Synapse installed)?

Hey thanks for the reply!

1. it doesn't happen if i close Synapse (at least not happened in the 2 hours game paly), thats why i guess it might be the Synapse problem.

2. sorry i dont have another PC for the test, all other computers are Mac system 😞 can't play game on it.



again thanks for your reply 🙂

Ok, let's try this steps:

Uninstall Synapse, then download and use this tool to remove any drivers/leftovers: https://rzr.to/Tf53xj

After this, restart your PC, and after restart download&install Synapse (as administrator - right click on it and choose this option).

By reinstall you mean disk format, and clean windows install? Or just windows refresh/reset to defaults?

If you still have Synapse - please check what happens if you create a new (empty) profile for your keyboard.

I mean disk format and clean windowsa install.

Now, i am trying a new solution, use regeditor to disable the win key in system level.

Because in my guess, it might be the keyboard somehow trigger the win key even i disabled it in game mode.

So far it works ok, but i only have 1 hour to test the game. tonight i will run a stress testing by play overwatch 2-3 hours see how it works.

Thanks for the help, i will let you know if the regeditor work or not :)



Have a good day 🙂

Yeah, it works, this time, my keyboard works fine for the first 3 hours, then suddenly, it crash again. this time is the right Alt and right shift keys. these 2 keys stuck in the system level. now i can do is use the regeditor to block these 2 keys as well since normally i don't use these keys.

tomrrow, lets see how it works ;)



and I search the other web, there are few people have the same problem with different brand of keyboards. So i guess this time may not be the Synapse?



what they do is,

1. keep press alt ctrl and shift for few times, and the issue will fix.

2. press win+L to log out and then log in again, the issue will fix.

3. press ctrl+al+del then press ESC to cancel, the issue will fi.



I will keep trying 🙂

Dude, it works! just press Win+L, and you will logout to the welcome screen, then log in again, the bug fixed.

In this case, guess its neither the hardware nor the Synapes problem, its the windows.

Thanks for reply me, case closed 🙂
