Windows 10: After updating to Windows 11, it seems my shift+d key is not working. How can I fix this?

I can do caps lock and d, and that works, I have tried repairing drivers, however, nothing is working. It is not a hardware issue as even with the on-screen keyboard, I can't type shift+d anywhere.

Shift+D not working??

Had same problem with right Shift and D only. Left Shift and D was working, right Shift and D was not doing anything (not a small d but nothing at all). All other Shift key combinations were working. In my case turned out the print screen button on the keyboard was stuck. Once released worked fine. So if a key isn't working pays to see if some other keys are stuck.

 

Shift+D not working??

Thanks BP.

I'll try it as soon as it breaks again. I wasn;t working 5 mins ago, but now it is.

Everything is in standard US. No Vietnamese key programs and no macros.

Hmm..

Stopped working again, must be mechanical. Weird that shift works with every other key except 'd'

I have a spare keyboard somewhere. I'll have to dig it out and give that a go.

I tried the website, and while typing, it recognizes the left shift key + d being pressed atm, but when i try right shift, it recognises every key other than D.

It may just be the right shift key as i usually type without realising which shift i am using.

Edit - ok i unplugged it and replugged it in, and it's the same. guess i need a new KB

 

shift keys not working

I upgraded to windows 10 on my Toshiba laptop and then did the windows update and when I tried to do anything with the shift key neither one works. I read all the suggestions I could find in here and tried most of them with no luck. I ran the hardware
and device troubleshooter, I went to the keyboard on control panel and it says it's working properly. I tried shift/control/alt keys all together. I downloaded and scanned with anti malware and I did the fn and del keys with no results. I would like an easy
fix for this as I believe it is a windows 10 and or update for windows 10 issue. I am not real savvy on the computer so I need step by step instructions, please and thank you.
