What to Try:
A. Reset the SMC and your NVRAM:
Sometimes when changes are made to the system(i.e. updates), system configurations (i.e. for the keyboard) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM.
B. Use an External Keyboard:
An external keyboard may be how to solve this.
- Shutdown: the Mac
- Unplug: everything
- Wait: 30 seconds
- Plug in: the keyboard and other items
- Try this once one.
C. Adapter:
You may need an adapter for this, if you do not have Bluetooth enabled, or if you do not have USB-A plug. This is an example of the adapter of sorts to use: USB-C to USB Adapter - Apple. Note that it does not have to be Apple brand. But for trustworthiness, going brand-for-brand is how one may going about choosing which to get.
