I fixed my \"w\" key with **Unshaky**, and if it does not work for you, open an issue [here](https://github.com/aahung/Unshaky/issues). The image below illustrates how Unshaky works.\n\n![How Unshaky works](README/how-unshaky-works.png)\n\n[June 2018] Good news, Apple launched a [Keyboard Service Program for MacBook and MacBook Pro](https://www.apple.com/ca/support/keyboard-service-program-for-macbook-and-macbook-pro/), and go get your keyboard fixed, maybe temporarily.\n\n[May 2019] Apple extends [the service program](https://www.apple.com/ca/support/keyboard-service-program-for-macbook-and-macbook-pro/) to cover all MacBook (Air \u0026 Pro) with 3rd gen butterfly keyboards.\n\n[May 2020] [The Verge: The saga of Apple\u2019s bad butterfly MacBook keyboards is finally over](htt",
