    Keyboard is opening shortcuts instead of typing after windows update.


    Hello, recently having a with my keyboard section after the windows update version KB5040527. The problem my keyboard is opening shortcuts instead of typing letters. I've turned off the sticky keys, Filter keys, Toggle keys. I've also disabled WindowsInkWorkspace and reinstall the drivers from device manger I've restart my laptop too after doing every single steps and even press win + alt to fix this issue. But this issue still remains. Please help me to fix this issue.

    :)

  3. Microsoft Ergonomic Sculpt Keyboard opens shortcuts instead of typing

    Hello,

    I have a new out of box Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard and mouse combo - mouse works great.

    When using the keyboard to type it continually opens shortcuts and menu bars even when I deliberately pick up my hands and only hit one key. it does it on numerous keys including the space bar.

    It is installed on a computer with a new Windows 10 installation, I have installed the Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse utility and updated the drivers as well.

    If I even have the batteries in it during start-up my computer is opening up the boot menus without me touching the keyboard at all.

    Also I do not have it on the function option - slide to the left

    lastly the separate number key element also works fine

    Any suggestions welcome.

    thanks

    Keyboard is opening shortcuts instead of typing after windows update.

    Windows 10 commands/shortcuts/env. var.

    Keyboard shortcuts to open programs:

    Create a shortcut on the desktop to whatever program you want. Right click -> Properties and fill in the field there. Sadly the shortcut needs to remain on the desktop, but you can hide it.

    Fun fact: If you had keyboard shortcuts for programs pinned to your Windows 7 start menu, those shortcuts still work when you update to Windows 10.
