Razer Blackwidow V3 Pro keys double typing


Hello,

Recently some keys (random) are double typing, which is very frustrating.

I already did a firmware update, reset my keyboard to the default settings, check Windows keyboard settings, cleaned the keyboard.

Nothing seems to work.

Is there any solution to fix this?

 

Thank you in advance.

I justt boughtt this Blackwidow v4 pro a couple months ago and its double typing. sttarted with just a single key but now severall more within a week and also more frequently. trash. all of my razer peripherals have problems like tthis

I have the same issue with my Razer Pro Type Ultra, the work around I found was to set windows settings for keyboards to remove repeat or unintentional key strikes, you can adjust settings for different categories, just experiment to you can still type double letters in words like bee, or settings, etc (as well as backspace)

 

In Windows settings

  • Accessibility
  • Keyboard
  • Filter keys *On*

Under filter keys, set 

  • Ignore quick keystrokes
  • Ignore unintended keystrokes
  • Ignore repeated keystrokes

 

 

Just found some guy on reddit who posted this link:

https://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Keyboard-Chattering-Fix.shtml

Its a program that detects and erases double key presses, and it seems like it works regardless of if its a hardware issue or not. Have not tried yet as mine is not that bad and a virus is not worth fixing it at this moment, but probably will try sometime in the future.

 

Figured this might help some of you if you’re still using this keyboard.

I have the BlackWidow V3 Mini Hyperspeed and have had the double typing problem for a while - it has gotten quite bad. Firmware up to date as of today, 8/5/2024.

 

I just installed the keyboard chattering software mentioned by trendaeroLumber857 above, adjusted it to 100ms and it fixed everything. I turned off the sound option when it fixes errors because it was happening constantly. I didn’t realize how bad it really was.

 

Although the software is from 2014, I installed it on Windows 11 successfully without the need for any workarounds. No virus alerts yet.

This is still happening 2024 on the razer blackwidow v3. Latest **ffirmware update as well. **it happened again

Same issue here with the V4 Blackwidow Pro 100.  At first I thought it was just me and how I was typing but I have had this keyboard for almost a year and this issue started happening recently with first the ‘D’ key and then the ‘K’ key.  It’s so frustrating for me because I use my gaming rig as a home lab for different hypervisor setups that involve me typing credentials a lot, not to mention just TYPING on this keyboard should not have any issue for almost $400 CAD!  I think I am done with Razer for good.  I have been a solid customer for many years but this was kind of the last straw. I’m typing this on the new K100 RGB I just got and it’s been great so far.  Sorry Razer, you lost a good customer.

 

And YES I did try to fix this by uninstalling/reinstalling/closing Synapse/updating drivers, firmware and different USB ports (i have never used a USB hub for peripherals which would be silly anyway).

Thank you in advance.

Here’s what I did to fix this problem:

 

Get a good grade of Isopropyl Alcohol, at least 91% or higher, an eye dropper, and a Q-tip. Pry up the key. Put a drop or two of the alcohol directly into the switch, and press it several times to work the alcohol into the switch. Clean up with the Q-tip. This worked for me. The problem is caused by a lubricant that they used in the switch that can spread around and cause electrical issues. The alcohol evaporates the lube and fixes the problem.

 

Do this for all the keys that are double-typing.
