keyboard - Hold Key Doesn't Repeat in Every Application in WIndows 10

I am using Dell XPS13 9360 running Windows 10 with everything up to date (Windows update, Dell update, Bios, Intel Chipset, etc).


Recently, possibly after last bios upgrade, holding keys no longer repeat properly in every applications. A few examples:



  • Office 2016 - backspace repeats but arrow and delete keys don't

  • Chrome/IE11 - nothing repeats

  • Edge - all keys repeat as expected


I tried all the suggestions around ticking or unticking "User Filter Keys" option. It didn't solve the problem. On-screen keyboard has the same behavior


The only way to "fix" the issue is to uninstall all keyboard drivers in device manager and reboot following the prompt. Once the PC is back up, every key repeats normal, but only till the next reboot where the issue reoccurs.


Is there anything else I can try to solve the problem once for all?
