  1. Keyboard seems to be malfunctioning


    So I am facing some issues with my keyboard, few keys are producing weird results which have come to my notice:
    1 Down arrow : Adds a space character in normal .txt file, while in MS Excel deletes the characters from the whole cell
    2 Spacebar : Adds a space and then goes to the next line if any characters are present below
    3 Back space : Only removes one character at a time, even when long pressed.

    I checked the settings under Ease of Acces -> Keyboard , and all the Keyboard modes are turned off
    Also the onscreen keyboard seems to be working perfectly fine.

    :)

    Keyboard Malfunction

    We appreciate the information you provided. This issue might be caused by a mismatched driver for your keyboard or pointing device. We suggest to Roll Back the driver by following the below steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X, and click Device Manager.
    • Expand the Keyboards category, right-click the keyboard device, and select
      Properties.
    • Under the Driver tab, click Roll Back Driver. This will restore your old driver.
    • Restart your PC.
    If you don’t want to roll back the driver you can try disabling the pointing device by:

    • Right side of task bar
    • Click the pointing device symbol (looks like a laptop mouse)
    • Right click
    • Then click on Disable
    Note: You might need to do it every time you power your device.

    Should you have further questions please let us know.
