    Keyboard Locked?


    I wiped the keyboard down with a Clorox wipe and now my built in keyboard on my laptop dell latitude e5550 is not working.I have already ruled out water damage since this has happened before. Its because i pressed some combination of keys somehow and now its locked me out or changed they keyboard somehow.The touch screen keyboard does not pop up even though you can see it almost slide up.The wireless mouse has stopped working but the laptop mousepad does workThe on-screen keyboard does pop up but when I click on the buttons with my mouse, nothing happens. Both alt keys are highlighted blue i

    :)

    Keyboard problem in Windows 10

    Hi David,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you to check if the issue persists when you connect another keyboard to your system.

    If the issue is with the keyboard, then suggest you to update the keyboard drivers by following the steps below.


    • Press Windows key + X and select
      Device Manager
      from the list.

    • Expand ‘Keyboard’ from the list.

    • Right click on the driver and select ‘update driver software’ and follow the prompts.

    Hope the information is helpful.
