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.

for v3 pro check latest firmware i had double typing too and i had to give up and buy another brand…. 1 year lather they come up with this update 

 

Same issue for me heree. What you’re seeeing in this chat boox isn’t typoos, it’s just how my bblackwidow v3 mini hyperspeed typese if I don’t correct it. It’s incrediblly annoying. I’vee updated my firmware, did a hard reset of thee kkeyboard, and yet……...

My keyboard BWV3 had the same issue, after reading these commets i saw the cause was due to overlubrication. So i took it to my garage removed the keycaps from the annoying buttons and blew compressed air in them. this fixed the issue for me (for now)..

Same solution for the horendous volume scroller, i blew the compressed air to the side of it making it spin really fast and now it finaly does what i tell it to do. no more random volume inputs.

Hope this easy fix works for everyone with the issue.

Kind regard

Razer Blackwidow V3 Mini fresh owner here. 

Actually, I got a new one because the former was sent to the lab due to it turning off while in 2.4 mode, and I got a new one. Now pressing the letter A, if I keep it held for just a while longer, it double taps. So two different keyboards, two hardware malfunctions. I’ll let you conclude whatever you want. 

Same. Brand new keyboard, took me a while to understand what was happening. A week ago had a problem with sync after their update, now this. Yeah razer is bs.

Started getting this issue around 3 months ago, for some reason it happens more often on my mac than on my windows machine.

Purchased this around a year and a half ago, and it is infuriating. I’ve had Corsair as well, but that one took like 7 years of neglect before it started to cause issues, and even then it is not as bad as the BlackWidow 3. I still have warranty, but that means that I need a replacement to work with while the keyboard gets serviced (if I even get them to do it at all).

Suffice to say, I am not looking forward to more Razer products. I also had issues with some of their earbuds for a while. So far, only the Basilisk mouse I got keeps working fine.

This update fixed it for my blackwidow v3 pro.

I have the same problem with this key:

“ ´´ ”

It is impossible to type only one character and it’s frustrating because I have this keyboard not even a year.

I’m done with razr.

I'm so disappointed, I have a huntsman v2 elite, love the keyboard and had it since when it came out. Throughout the years it started having some problems left and right, like the media keys going up and down as nothing was happening or the wrist rest screws being too lose it came appart. Then suddenly this happens, I did everything above and honestly with the price paid I would've hoped for a couple more years with it. I know I'm bitching, but I'm hoping that this post gets enough traction to get someone looking into this. 

Same problem with my Razer Blackwidow V3 Mini. I’ve already updated firmware to the latest version. Some of keys have double typing issue. Issue exist on my 2 Windows PCs and 1 Mac mini M2  computer with any type of connecting even via USB cable, dongle and bluetooth. 

I have a Black Widow v3 Pro and I hae the issue where sometimes keys don’t register when I type them and sometimes a key will double type. This isn’t a problem all of the time and sometimes it is worse than others. I updated to the latest firmwar and and have synapse updated. I’ve tried losing synapse and the problem persists. 
Right now it’s now too bad (up until this point it’s only happened twie -- now three times -- with the “v” on have, the “e” on firmware, and the “c” on twice). I purposely didn’t fix any mistakes. Usually I’d say it is worse than this. 

I have the same problem! First item V is spamming and not working. The physical shop replace it. Now, letter “U” is douuble typing. Just look at that word I did not delete the extra “u” when I typed. Frustrating!!!!

This update fixed it for my BWv3Pro too! Sorry to all those who are still having issues. That sucks. I’m glad I found this thread though.

Thanks!

Hey ! I finally find a solution for that. This is not a software issue but a mechanical one. Just remove the keycaps (keyboard off), and put few drops of isopropylic alcohol on the switch and spam it so that the liquid penetrates well. Let it dry 30/40 min. The operation work fine for me (double e typing everytime). If this could help some and prevent them from throwing away their keyboard or worse buying a new one from razer. 

 

If razer reads this :  beautiful keyboards should’t hide a shitty conception, no need to garantee 50M hits when they barely do 10% 

 

 

 

i have a razer blackwidow v3 tenkeyless and have the same problem! very frustrating!!! using windows 10 x64.

 

deleted the device with device manager and reinstalled the software...did not help.

 

its very hard to type on this now and shouldnt happen.

 

regards

I have the same problem! It’s terrible, it’s impossible to work with

I “solve” the multiple typing problem by smashing de sh** out of each button that had this problem.Try testing in a text editor like this:

When you find double typing, use the rage, frustration and a little madness against that button. Tell me how it goes pls.

that doesn’t fix it, mine started double typing after around 2 or 3 month’s of use. i see my replacement keyboard is on the way to me now after contacting razer

I have same issue with double tying words and after update new firmware there are another issue with they key don’t work. After 10 times it works 1 word.  Contact with customers support and asked me to video proof this issue.  I’ve been using this Razer product 10 years+ and now I am done with this product name. Razer always have same issue double tap on keyboard and double click on mouse. too expensive for this product but not for long to use. 

 

 

 

That firmware upgrade fixed the double / tripple typing. I always thought the firmware gets updated via Razer Synapse, which is not the case. You need to download the Firmware update .exe

I already updated new firmware but it didn’t work… worse than before. now tap on a key didn’t work at all.

I'm on my second Keyboard , first one was replaced by the warranty and the replacement just started having siimilar issues - Perfect example - double ii  as I typed my review.  Completely dissapoiinted - did it again, doesn't always happens but it does seem like razer is no longer what it used to be.  

It probably lasted a little over a 1 yr, products are now becoming disposable.   Razer Blackwidow Mini hyperspeed is not recommended - it has manufacturing issues.  

The firs keyboard i bought starting having issues about 1 month in, got a replacement and now after a little over 1 yr of use it starting having same issues as the first.  

Like one of the previous replies - the switches are yellow switches and it doesn't matter if using bluetooth or connected using usb cable same issue.  

New keyboard has the option for replaceable keys, due to the issues with the previous design flaws. Wish that razzer - did it again -- would give customers the option to upgrade to the new version at 50% or something like that.  

Was going through a Google search and thought it was only a problem with my laptop or something, wow, I am so sad right now.
I have a Blackwidow V3 Tenkeyless that I use in my home office and a Blackwidow V3  Mini Hyperspeed that I take to work with me, BOTH HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!
😭

Did you’ve tried to exit synapse (close it from tray) and test if it’ll double type?

Yes, its the same error. Its ok. I think my next keyboard is a logitech again!

This started happening about 2 months ago and I’ve just been dealing with it but it’s gotten so bad in the last few days that I started searching for solutions. I have a BW v3 Pro that was on software revision 1.00 something so updated to the current June 23rd firmware 3. something and it’s solved the problem. I suspect that they put a nearly imperceptible delay buffer in the key scan so that the double strike that happens within milliseconds is removed.
