    Can't press windows button or use any shortcuts like Alt+Tab at all


    This started today and i don't know how it happened. I have tried to trubleshoot but it says that there's nothing wrong with my keyboard. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, can you tell me how to fix it?

    LAST USED WINDOW SHORTCUT ? not ALT-TAB BUT

    So Thank you dekayed it all works. I have noticed when in EDGE I can not crlt Tab back to Chrome but ALT TAB functions to go from Chrome To Edge. But these shortcuts are working. I have a list of WINDOWS 10 EXPLORER shortcuts but these you shared were not in the list that I found. These shortcuts you shared must be in a different category of shortcuts. Im thinking I need to read some kind of windows 10 manual or watch a tutorial on windows 10

    ALT+TAB Just Sits On Screen


    Just a crazy suggestion but have your Windows and ALT keys got swapped or confused. Your work computer behaviour sounds more like the Windows + Tab keys are being pressed.
