    Right arrow key doesn't work. Have to press alt+right arrow to function normally.


    Windows 11 HomeVerison 23H2Custom built PCI don't remember when it started, but I noticed that my right arrow key doesn't function anymore. It is not a physical issue. No dust or anything of that nature physically blocking the key/keycap/etc. Happens on all keyboards I test, so its definitely a software/technical issue.The only way to actually use the right arrow key is by pressing ALT+right arrow and it functions as intended. Up, left, and down all function normally, but the right does not. I have to press ALT+right arrow to make it work. Can't figure it out.

    :)

    Right arrow key on keyboard enters ALT and DELETE

    Thank you for the suggested solutions.

    Unfortunately they have not resolved the issue.

    After reviewing the on screen keyboard, the right arrow key on the keyboard when pressed is acting as the ALT and DELETE keys.

    The right arrow does not function as a right arrow key in the BIOS menu

    either.

  3. right alt+arrow keys does not work in windows 10 file explorer

    left alt + arrow keys work correctly for going back and forward in file explorer but with the right alt arrow key, it doesn't. Is there any work to make it working??
