Input.GetAxis() wrong values on laptops

Hi, I'm making a 2D project and I'm trying to use the User input to move the camera (top view). I did it with this function attached to a mono behavior component on the camera object:

 void LateUpdate(){
 
         var movex = Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal");
         var movey = Input.GetAxisRaw("Vertical");
         
         move = new Vector2(movex, movey).normalized;
 
         speed = cam.orthographicSize * 2;
         
         if(Time.timeScale > 0) {
             rb.velocity = move * speed / Time.timeScale;
         }
 }

It works very fine, but as soon as I open the project (built or through unity editor) on a laptop, the camera starts drifting uncontrollably in a constant direction (-1,1).

I investigated some more and I found out that moveX is always equal to -1 and moveY to 1 if the game windows is active. They both return to 0 when the game is out of focus (other window selected).
