remote connection (AweSun and AnyDesk) - Control and Shift key stick when pressed for 1 or more seconds

I'm having a problem that i need to access another computer through remote connection (AweSun and AnyDesk) and when i press Control or Shift key for one second or more and release, it sticks and keeps holding on remote computer

This bug is VERY ANNOYING, because i need to unfocus the remote connection window and focus again to unstick these keys

Do you guys know any solution? I really need it and i suffered to type this due to these bugs, had to type with my phone on computer lol

Target computer: Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard

P.S.: Just found out by the worst way possible that Windows key also sticks ;-;

edit: sticky keys aren't enabled in both computers

This seems like a long-running problem in AnyDesk. Some example articles:

• CTRL and ALT keys stuck after pressing them
• Shift key is stuck.

This doesn't happen with other remote-control programs, in case you are able to switch to some other alternative of AnyDesk.

The solutions that were claimed as working for some people:

• Pressing rapidly the stuck key
• Rapidly cycling through several of the keysCtrl (both left & right), Shift (both left & right) andWin
• Typing Ctrl+Alt+Del followed byEsc
• If it's only one Ctrl key that causes the problem, say the left one, disable it using a program such as SharpKeys and always use the other one.
