i think i accidentally activated developer keys when i type the letter w WS2X APPEARS how do i restore regular keys
 
Sounds like there might be something metallic inside your keyboard that might be shortening a few keys. All four characters (2, W, S, X) are in column on the keyboard, and when you press W all are pressed. Does it happen also when pressing other keys, or just W?
