The USB keyboard was connected because it stopped responding when multiple keys on the keyboard of the notebook PC were typed.

Since both the laptop keyboard and the external USB keyboard are enabled, unexpected characters are entered each time the laptop keyboard is touched.

Very inconvenient.

Therefore,

I have disabled the laptop keyboard, so I will share the steps I took.

How to disable laptop keyboard

Registry operation is at your own risk

Before operating the registry editor,
Make a backup of your registry in case of an accident.
