  1. Arrow keys act stuck only while using windows functions


    When ever I use a windows function it slams as far right or far down as it can go like my arrow key is stuck. Does not happen in any other menu or in games or while surfing. Only buggy while in anything that comes with window Gamebar, calender, start menu, setting, ect.

  2. down arrow key stopped working

    My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

    Windows + Arrow Keys Stops working

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    Please provide more information to help you better:


    • Are you using a USB keyboard?

    • Have you made any changes to the PC prior to the issue?

    • What is the make and model of your keyboard?

    Since you are able to use the other shortcut keys, means that the keyboard works fine. This issue can occur if the
    Arrow keys on the keyboard are faulty.

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps:

    Method 1:

    Try using the Arrow keys on other programs. Check if they are functional.

    Most of the sytems have “Fn” key or a Function Lock key. This key can be used to
    Enable and Disable the Arrow keys. Check if the
    Arrow keys function after toggling the Fn key.

    Method 2:

    Try connecting a different keyboard to your computer. Try the shortcut keys once again. Check if they works.

    Reply with necessary information and the result to help you further. Thank you.
