Macbook Pro acting like there is a stuck key.

This is starting to happen with more frequency, but at random points during the day, my Macbook Pro acts like the period key is being held down. It's not. It's not the Bluetooth keyboard (I can turn that off and it still happens).


The only way to get it to stop is to turn the entire computer off and then back on again. Anyone experiencing this? How do I fix it?


Windows, Windows 10

Sounds like the built-in keyboard may be bad. Have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the laptop and provide you with an estimate for repair.
