  2. My Closed Curly Bracket button does not work

    Good day everyone,

    Recently, I noticed that my closing curly bracket has suddenly stopped working for no apparent reason. I have searched for solutions but to no avail. Note here that my shift button works just fine, my closing normal bracket works fine, however combine the two and the key doesn't work. Though, some times, attempting to spam the closing curly bracket alongside shift will result in a delayed closed curly bracket output, which is very very odd.

    I have attempted to use Laptop Keyboard Tester and it shows that the key is in fact working. I've run troubleshoot and have uninstalled my keyboard driver and to no avail. My windows version is as shown below

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  3. My Closed Curly Bracket button does not work

    Hello Yawn yanwxer,



    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I understand the problem with your computer keyboard closing curly bracket not working.



    From your description, it seems that many times the shif key plus closing curly bracket will delay the output, which is not normal.



    If you don't have this problem with the on-screen keyboard, then the problem may be in the hardware.



    You can try an external keyboard, if the external keyboard is used normally then it is recommended to overhaul the laptop hardware.



    If the external keyboard also appears the same problem that may be the keyboard input method settings there is a problem, you can go to the input method settings inside to see if there is shift + { key combination, will be canceled.

    If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



    Best Regards,
