Currently any key event (key down, key up, key tap) on windows will press and hold the key continuously. If I try to run "key up" on it, nothing happens. On OSX this same script seems to work perfect, and releases the keys as expected. Is this an issue with sticky keys possibly?

Yep had the same problem so clealy a bug in RobotJS. Neither key up or tap will actually send the release event in windows making the key stuck down in many apps. I had to resort to Nut.JS where down and release works just fine (although their equivalent of tap does not it seems).
