After updating to the Fall Creators' Update, Windows misses the first several keystrokes from my Microsoft Designer Bluetooth Keyboard. This occurs when after rebooting, first logging in or simply after the keyboard has been idle for a bit. The problem happens not only in Windows, but in all applications, too.
I have replaced the keyboard batteries and the problem persists.
I have tried another identical keyboard and the problem persists with that keyboard, too.
I have checked for driver updates, but Device Manager indicates that I have the latest drivers.
The problem did not happen before updating to the Fall Creators' Update.

To the Microsoft folks, thanks for your help in attempting to solve this problem. It is discouraging, however, after working through this issue for several days, to have it simply dumped into the "black hole" of the Feedback Hub rather than escalated for further investigation -- especially for current Microsoft hardware products.
For those following this thread who've reported sluggishness problems with the Microsoft Designer Bluetooth Mouse, I've created a problem report on the Feedback Hub for that, too.

I have tried to use the "Feedback Hub". Unfortunately I was unable to follow your instructions as the flow through the hub was almost entirely different. I did discover it was not possible to trace anything remotely like the BT keyboard problem introduced by Windows Update - so not able to add anything. The Hub experience was completely confusing (probably exactly what MS want) so I won't be wasting any more time with it.
Perhaps MS would respond using this forum - at least you can search and find the issue here...

Very similar experience for me with the Designer Bluetooth Keyboard.
The keyboard seems to sleep after a period of inactivity and will wake up in the time it takes to enter 2 - 4 characters. After that it is okay until another period of inactivity.
The problem started after the Windows 10 Fall Creators' update. The problem did NOT occur before.
The drivers are up to date.
I replaced the batteries.
I changed the "Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R) Properties" > "Power Management" setting to disable "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", it did not make any difference.
I deleted the device and repaired, it did not make any difference.
After deleting and repairing I tried both settings for "Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R) Properties" > "Power Management" setting to disable "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", it did not make any difference.Help!
