  1. Help Cant disable Calc key (launch App 2)on keyboard


    Hi,

    Im trying to stop windows 10 from opening the Calc app when I press the Cal key on my ducky shine 7.

    I tried to remap it with Sharpkeys but it says it cant remap the key (00_000).

    I also went to

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey and deleted all the folders inside (I think calc was the 18), but windows still opens up the calculator when I press it.

    Is there another path in regedit that stores the shortcut for the Calc app?

    I want to use the key to mute on discord.

    thx

  2. Windows 10 Laptop Keyboard Keys Acting Strange

    Hi,

    I realize that you are facing issues with the keyboard on your PC. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to the laptop to check if that helps.

    Further you may also use the onscreen keyboard to check if that helps.

    Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:


    • Press Windows key + R to get the run window.

    • Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.

    Disabling laptop keyboard

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    As per the description. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

    I suggest you follow the steps below and check if that helps:

    • Press Windows + X and select
      Device Manager
      from the list.
    • Find Keyboards in the list of devices and click the arrow to expand it.
    • Right-click on the internal keyboard and click Disable. If there is no Disable option listed, click
      Uninstall.
    • Click File>Exit. Your laptop’s internal keyboard should now be disabled.
    Note: If you had to choose Uninstall instead of Disable in step 4, the keyboard will be automatically detected and re-installed if you ever have the Device Manager scan for new hardware for some reason. If that happens you’ll need to repeat this procedure
    in order to uninstall it again.

    Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.
