Chrome thinks my shift key is pressed down

Project Member Reported by dbloch@google.com, Mar 9 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3035.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Unknown.

What is the expected behavior?
Keys and mouse buttons behave normally.

What went wrong?
Keys and mouse buttons act as if the shift key was down.

This affects only Chrome, not other applications on the same machine.  The only way I know to fix it is to stop and restart Chrome.  This happens about once a day on average.  It's been happening for years.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 59.0.3035.0  Channel: canary
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: 

Let me know if you can think of any way to get more information on this, or any way I might be able to fix it without restarting Chrome.

You're not going to be able to triage this.  It only happens once a twice a day, and probably only to me.  I'm mostly interested in whether there's any tracing I can run on my machine which might tell what the problem is.
