Electrical issues( battery drain)

I’ve had my 99 f350 for 2 months it has the v10 triton 6.8l. It has seemingly just had a bad ground pop up to where if I hit any button(with brand new fully charged battery) it instantly drains the battery to almost nothing. If I try to start it nothing, I’d i hit the power windows it drains. I have replaced the starter and alternator, the battery and terminals all brand new. I’ve checked all fuses. Could it be a ground to the frame, or something much larger. Like I said I pulled in **** it off, went to start it again and nothing happened it won’t even get enough power to try and start( with new battery). Any help his desperately appreelectr
