    Control shift N not working


    I want to be able to use Control shift N to create a new folder in Windows 10 on the desktop for instance.


    I know that that is one of the built-in shortcuts, but I can't get it to work.


    Maybe Control shift N got reassigned.


    Is there a place I can check that?


    I have googled and looked in textbooks.

    :)

    shift keys not working

    I upgraded to windows 10 on my Toshiba laptop and then did the windows update and when I tried to do anything with the shift key neither one works. I read all the suggestions I could find in here and tried most of them with no luck. I ran the hardware
    and device troubleshooter, I went to the keyboard on control panel and it says it's working properly. I tried shift/control/alt keys all together. I downloaded and scanned with anti malware and I did the fn and del keys with no results. I would like an easy
    fix for this as I believe it is a windows 10 and or update for windows 10 issue. I am not real savvy on the computer so I need step by step instructions, please and thank you.

    You just need a Skylake CPU and ThrottleStop, once turned on speed shift you can exit the software as unclewebb said above.

    Control shift escape not working

    Hi! I've been using control shift escape for years now and it's always been so much easier than lots of clicks or typing. But the shortcut mysteriously stopped working. I've checked for viruses and I can still access task manager through the other means.
    How do I enable the control shift escape shortcut again?
