    Insert/Home/PgUp keys are controlling my cursor


    I have no clue what is going, mouse keys are turned off but for some reason the keys are controlling my mouse movements and I can't use them for their original purpose. I don't have any scripts running this happens on boot. Please help



    Insert - Left click

    Home - Move cursor up

    PageUp - Right Click

    Del - Move cursorleft

    End - Move cursor down

    PgDwn - Move cursor right

    Prt Sc - Page down

    :)

    CTRL+PgUp // CTRL+PgDn

    My CTRL+PgUp and CTRL+PgDn hotkey suddenly stopped working. The keys work independently (i.e. my CTRL keys and PgUp PgDn functions work on their own), but the combination no longer works for switching tabs in Chrome or even Excel.

    Any suggestions as to why this may be happening?

    Thanks!

    Pgup arrow key is a delete key

    99% this is an hardware issue, hence you will need to go for keyboard replacement.

    For 100% confirmation, arrange an external keyboard and attach this. Here PgUp key should behave normally proving issue is not with OS but with keyboard hardware.

    Insert/Home/PgUp keys are controlling my cursor

    Where are the PgUp and PgDn keys on the Windows 10 Touch Keyboard?

    I MUST have PgDn and PgUp keys on My Surface Go for use with a terminal emulator program. I can't find them or generate them by any means I have tried, including Fn key combinations. How do I generate PgDn and PgUp keys on a Surface
    Go with the Windows 10 Touch Keyboard (not the Type Cover)?
