    I somehow lost most keyword function, media hot keys still work but nothing else. I went as far as buying a new Logitech keyboard/mouse combo, changing USB ports even though they properly function with anything else, and ultimately reinstalled Windows 11. All drivers are up-to-date and functioning properly. The problem is that it is classified under "other devices", not keyboards. The complete keyboard branch is missing. What do I need to do to get that back?

    none of the below mentioned instructions has restored the HID compliant touchscreen driver.additionally i had gone into the windows new window driver list and installed the voltron driver for touchscreen and still no fix. this is a HP 360-11-p112nr energy
    star convertible touchscreen laptop and upon installing windows 10 newer version, the HID compliant touchscreen driver was not loaded and or even present in device manager at all. the laptop has lost its capability to have touchscreen but the the laptop is
    in perfect condition.

    Device Manager Un-Hiding Hidden Devices

    When you connect a plug and play device, Windows Plug and Play manager detects it, finds and installs the driver. Device Manager lists the device with a solid icon.

    The driver is only removed when you uninstall the device, not simply by disconnecting the device. When the device is disconnected, its driver is still installed. By default, Device Manager only displays connected devices. When you show hidden devices, note the Bluetooth icon you see is semi-transparent (not opaque). That indicates a "non-present" device. Sometimes also called a "ghost" device. The driver is still installed but the device is not currently detected (i.e. not connected).

    Device can be disconnected when
    • Device unplugged (e.g. removing a USB device)
    • Turning a device OFF
    • Disabling the device in BIOS (then windows won't detect it) or
    • Device failure

    So
    • Check BIOS as suggested
    • Check board connections
    • Can b/t be turned off by a switch? or keyboard combination?
    Also possible the b/t h/w failed
