Windows 10: Cant use keyboard in many windows apps.

I have an issue where I cannot use my keyboard in most windows apps such as the store, apps from the store, aswell as some other apps such as the Xbox app. I have had the computer for about 8 months and this has happened since I got it. I did build the computer, it was also my first build so I may have made some mistake while installing windows. Just wondering if anyone knows a solution to this.

Keyboard problem in Windows 10

Hi David,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to check if the issue persists when you connect another keyboard to your system.

If the issue is with the keyboard, then suggest you to update the keyboard drivers by following the steps below.

• 
  Press Windows key + X and select
  Device Manager from the list.
  
• 
  Expand ‘Keyboard’ from the list.
  
• 
  Right click on the driver and select ‘update driver software’ and follow the prompts.
  

Hope the information is helpful.

I think I'll put a list of people's favourite apps in the OP, starting with my own until I get some suggestions, but you can take a look at the Windows Phone app store at the top apps to see what's popular http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store

You are both now added, welcome! *Toast :toast:
