Keyboard typing random inputs, even when keyboard is unplugged

Post Body

For the past week or so, I have been having an issue with my computer typing random inputs. It seems to mainly type e, s, w, r, q, 2, F1, and the spacebar. There is absolutely no rhythm to it from my observation. Sometimes it is about 10 times per minute, and other times it is spamming keys faster than I could myself. First I will go through some of the trouble-shooting I have tried try to save some of your time and effort. (1) I tried unplugging the keyboard. This doesn't do anything and I've watched it go on for 10 minutes unplugged. I also have tried unplugging my mouse and headset just in case they were bugging out and sending random inputs and that also changed nothing. (2) I tried checking for windows updates, driver updates, and uninstalled and reinstalled my keyboard drivers to no help. It actually did stop for a little bit but came right back in a couple of minutes. (3) I then began to be worried that possibly I had some sort of malware/virus so I ran a scan with Windows Defender and it failed to find anything. (4) Lastly, I tried running every single troubleshooter in the windows settings to find nothing wrong there either. Lastly I will add that this is happening in all applications. Wether I am playing Elden Ring or browsing the web it keeps pestering me. Thank you in advance for any help given, it is much appreciated
