Windows 10: Arrow Keys not working

My arrow keys are not working in windows but work properly on the login page typing the password and also work in DOS. Just refuse to work soon as windows is logged in and multiple hard reboots are required to fix it. I am sick of this as it is becoming a nuisance and every hard reboot takes up a good five to ten minutes unaccounted for time from my schedule.

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.
