Windows 10: How do I get my 3 E D C laptop keys to work consistently?

This problem started a few days ago and I honestly have no idea what's going on. Sometimes when I press those keys they want to work and other times they don't. Usually I have to press on the key for a while before it starts working and then a few seconds after it stops working again.- I tried cleaning those keys with an air duster- I restarted my computer and made sure I'm up to date with my updates multiple times- I uninstalled my keyboard driver and then restarted again- I made sure filter keys and sticky keys were off- I troubleshooted everything just in caseAny help will be greatly apprec

My shift + d,e,c is not working on my laptop

HelloK. Burak Esmer

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft community.

Understanding that the shift + d, e, c keys on your keyboard are not working, I presume that you use the d, e, c keys alone is normal, but the combination of the use of anomalies, which may be due to driver problems or third-party software interference caused by the failure, but also may be a hardware failure, or the main need to be further judged by the following tests, the results of the test will determine the direction of us



1. We first check whether it is a hardware failure. At the bottom of the computer search box, type "on-screen keyboard", in the pop-up keyboard with the mouse, long press the shift key, and then click on the d, e, c keys, if you can successfully achieve the function of the keyboard malfunction is due to a hardware failure of the keyboard caused by your device, you can contact technical support to try to solve the problem. If you can't achieve the function, it means the problem is at the system level, you can follow the steps below in order to do it.



2. At the system level, let's first consider the driver. Right-click on the Start icon at the bottom, select "Device Manager" - > Select "Keyboard" from the list, find the driver of the keyboard you are using in the drop-down list - > Right-click on "Uninstall Device". Uninstall Device". Then restart your computer, open Device Manager again, click "Check Hardware Changes", reinstall the driver and see if the problem is solved. If you are using another external keyboard, you can go to the official website of the external keyboard to download the recent driver and reinstall it.



3. Often third-party software or processes can also cause the keyboard to malfunction. We can perform a clean boot to troubleshoot this issue, you can click on the following official link: How to perform a clean boot in Windows - Microsoft Support If the problem has been tested and resolved, please follow the steps on this link as shown in the picture; if the problem still persists after the clean boot, please let us know the result. Please let us know the result and we will continue to troubleshoot for you.

Exemption: "Clean Boot" boots Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps you determine if a background service is interfering with your game or program and isolate the cause of the problem.These "clean boot" steps may seem complicated at first glance. However, to avoid problems, follow them in order and step by step to help you get back on track.

HP Pavillion G6 Laptop - Keys e, d, and c are not working after windows 10 installation

Can anybody please help?

I have installed the windows 10 upgrade on to my Wife's laptop and three keys no longer work, E D C.

It doesn't matter if I try to use upper or lower case, so have had to resort to the Virtual keyboard so that we can use the Laptop.

Is there a windows 10 patch to correct this as it was working correctly before the installation?
