Windows 10: Up key puts Windows 10 to sleep

Hi guys and gals,

I got an i7 8565U hp ProBook 650 G5 back in February and I have noticed a weird behavior.
At completely random times, when I press the 'up' key several times, to either go up manually or move an object up, the computer goes to sleep. I haven't been able to find if there is a pattern, as it happens at random times.

Apparently no big harm done, I can always click the mouse and it's coming back, but has anyone any idea, what might cause that?

:)

 

windows 10 key

Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

 

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
