How can fix my msi gs70 spacebar?

How can fix my msi gs70 spacebar? Whenever I click the spacebar on the outer (left or right) edges I have to click really hard for the laptop to register it as a key press. Sometimes no matter how hard I press or if I even hold down the spacebar key it won't register a click. It works fine if I press near the middle.

I had this problem, i bought some double sided sticky pads i had laying around and without removing the space bar carfully lifted it just enough to push the pad inbetween the white plastic thing and the spacebar key cap itsself it doesnt look any different and works just the same but without the miss click :) hope this helps !

"Inserting a piece of paper between the spacebar and the button seems to have worked for me. I folded the paper over the end of a credit card and used the credit card to both pry the spacebar upwards slightly and simultaneously push the paper in.

I also have a fairly recent laptop: MS-16K3 with a GeForce GTX 1070. Bought about March 2018."

I just wanted to point out that this issue is still present in MSI's newer notebook lineup with the Pascal GPUs. I was able to resolve the spacebar issue on my GS63VR (GTX 1060) using the same technique. Be sure to be very careful removing the spacebar, or any key for that matter.
