Windows 10: Keyboard problem - I WOULD RATHER HAVE TROYANS

This is a reoccurring problem that comes and goes - once in a while left Shift and w key on a laptop just stop working. It is back again.


Advice ''contact the manufacturer etc.'' is useless - I am not a monarch or VIP and, if the keyboard or a part of it is dead, I would rather get an external keyboard - it only takes an hour to get one and costs almost nothing in comparison to every other solution.


I would rather have troyans than bugware or mechanical damage. At least I know how to deal with troyans.

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.

Here are the first two steps you need to take:

• Try a different keyboard (or an external USB keyboard in case of a laptop)
• See if the problem persists with the on-screen keyboard (osk.exe)

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
