how to disable internal keyboard of MacBook Pro

I want to disable my internal keyboard of my Macbook (Mid 2014). Is there any way for it?


The reason of this: The button <ALT> seen always pushed; so, I can not use normal keyboard. The solution that offered is new keyboard but it is too expensive for now! I want to use external keyboard and it partially works but because of <ALT> problem, all problems going on except writing anything like this message.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

The keyboard cannot be disabled but the Option key can. Open Keyboard preferences pane and click on the Keyboard button in the top row of buttons. Then click on the Modifier Keys button in the lower right corner. From the panel that appears set the Option key to No Action.
