Perhaps have another language installed and pushed ALT + Shift at the same time? Go to the Language bar and uninstall other languages if that's the case.

If not try turning off windows keyboard shortcuts: windows key -> type in "keyboard shortcuts" and disable everything

Sounds dumb but try unplugging your keyboard and plugging it back in, and restarting your computer.

That's all I can think of for now, short of going into the BIOS and rebinding keys.

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
