GTA V Moving Forward (Pressing 'W') glitch

Hi guys,

 

So I am having an issue which is pressing the "W" on my keyboard (moving forward). It's glitchy in singleplayer or Online. As you can see in video it's like something is blocking me or I don't know. When I press the left or the right button (A, D) it fixes (as you can see it on the video, as soon as I hit 'S' in my keyboard while driving the car goes with its normal speed) it until I won't stop. If I stop and press the 'W' again the glitch happens again. In the video I pressed 'W' continously. 

On Foot the issue: Glitchy, like something is blocking me. Fix: Press 'S', 'D', 'Alt' or 'Space' and the issue won't come again until I stop, but it's very annoying
On Vehicle the issue: the vehicle is very slow (every kind of vehicle: car, bike, ships etc...) Fix: Press 'S', 'D', 'Alt' or 'Space' and the issue won't come again until I stop, but it's very annoying

What I tried, but didn't work
- Reinstalled the Rockstar Launcher
- Deleted my save files and started the game again (the glitch is even in the Prolouge)
- Restored every setting to default
- Closed my game and restarted many times
- Restarted my computer many times (the issue started about 4-5 days ago)
- Tried a different button instead of 'W', but the same issue occoured witha different button
- Tried to swap to an other character in online and singleplayer as well
- Tried to drive friend's car who hasn't got this issue and the glitch is the same with his car if I drive that

 

I have a PC (can run the GTA smoothly), Normal keyboard (with cable), Wirless mouse

 

Do you have any idea or solution? The glitch can be seen very well in this video (onfoot, on vehicle as well):

 

Thank you.

FIXED. 

 

I changed battery in the wirless mouse and it solved the issue. I don't know how but it's fine now.

I know this is old, but after having the exact same problem with no reported fix on the internet, after several hours I figured it out and want to share to avoid other people suffering and possibly trashing a perfectly fine keyboard. In my case when I went to move forward or backward I would stutter like that in your video (in or out of the car), tried a different game, same thing. which was odd because I was just playing other games shortly before. tried a different keyboard, it worked. or if you don't have another keyboard try binding a mouse button as your walk forward button and that should work as well. Anyway, I was about to buy another keyboard but I noticed one thing; If I held any other key down first I could move fine. That bothered me. Felt like a setting over a random hardware failure. after messing around for hours I was just about to give up, found nothing online. I thought to myself (because of the type of keyboard I had) Can I reset this board? Found a way to reset it and BAM... works fine now. There may have been a setting in windows or a combinations of keys I pressed that did something to my bindings or keys.. Who knows. (hulk smashing keyboards can cause this to happen too.) So try and reset your board before you toss it. For me, I have a Coolermaster Masterkeys L and on the Coolermaster site is where I found the info to reset it, Simply hold FN then E at the same time for about 5 seconds and then I seen all the lights flash. Might be a different way to do it with different manufactures, or maybe its only this board that has this problem who knows. Hopefully this helps someone.
