Windows 10: How can i get rid of a bar at the bottom of my screen which shows every keystroke i type?

There is a bar at the bottom of my screen that is in grey. It had OemPa1 on it and it is annoying because i cant use my taskbar sometimes and is overall annoying. Btw the reason im saying it had was cause i clicked a bunch of keys which i had been using earlier and now its gone the OemPa1 thing. Here is a screenshot of it.

Hi Rodrigo,

By using the Character Map, you'll be able to use keystrokes to use letters that has tilde placed over them. To use the said utility, you can follow the steps below:

• Type Character Map in Cortana, the search box on your task bar.
• Find the character you need, then use the keystroke showing on the lower-right part of the screen.

Let us know if it addressed your concern.

Thank you.

 

Downloaded app, and a random search bar came to the top of my screen.

The search bar that is showing on the upper part of the screen is a 3rd party search bar tool. This tool bar may have been included during the installation or when you installed the CamStudio on your computer. To take that off from your screen, we suggest
that you uninstall the search bar tool. To do that, follow these steps:

• Right-click on Start and click Control Panel.
• Go to Programs and features and click Uninstall a Program.
• Under Uninstall or change a program, scroll through the list to check if there is any third party tool\search bar installed on the computer.
• If yes, right-click on the tool\search bar and uninstall it.

After typing the first letter/number, the cursor stops flashing and nothing else will type in.

Hi,



I realize that you are facing the issue with the keyboard, let me assist you.

To assist you better, write back to us with the following information.

• 
  Does the issue persists only in email and while entering the password or with other applications too?
  
• 
  Did you make any changes prior to the issue?
  
• 
  What is the make and model of your system?
  

As an initial step of troubleshooting, I suggest you to try using the on screen keyboard and check if the issue persists

Follow the steps below to open the on screen keyboard.

• Type on screen keyboard in the search bar and select
  On screen keyboard from the search items.

If you are able to type properly using the on screen keyboard then, it might be issue related to the keyboard hardware.

I suggest you to follow the below steps to run the
Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.

• 
  Type Troubleshooting in the search bar and press
  Enter key.
  
• 
  In the Troubleshooting window, click on
  View all option on the left pane.
  
• 
  Click on Hardware and Devices.
  
• 
  Click Next and follow the on-screen instructions.
  

If the issue persists, using on screen keyboard as well, then it might be an issue related to a third-party application or might be virus issue.

I suggest you to perform a full system scan using Windows Defender and check if it helps.
