Hello! I have an Acer Aspire V3-772G-5413 with Windows 10and someone in my family while using it spilled some sort of sugary beverage in the keyboard. (soda or sweet tea) anyways, the laptop works fine still just without the use of the keyboard. none work and i don't bother with it anymore, i bought a wireless keyboard and have been using that but most of the times my laptops keyboard will be acting up. rarely it will type letters/numbers constantly, it mostly hits a key while i hit one on my wireless keyboard. so if it typed hardware and the 2 was being it. it'd come out h2a2r2d2w2a2r2e2 and its really frustrating. i've google answers and tried through the device manager and it will successfully uninstall but when i restart the computer it's installed again and i still have the problem.

tl;dr - laptop keyboard wont turn off, tried device manager uninstalls, w10, pls help

Instead of uninstall have you tried disabling? You might be able to setup a script or bat file to disable it. But to be honest I'd just open it up and pull the ribbon cable that attaches the keyboard to to the laptop. It shouldn't be found after that.
