  1. Keyboard thinks WIN constantly pressed


    Restarting, control center troubleshooting, driver updates, and using different usb keyboards have all failed. On startup turning filter keys on and off will allow me to use the digital keyboard to enter my password, but past there I have to rely almost entirely on my mouse to do anything, though one out of every maybe eight logins the computer is useable again for no apparent reason until I shut it off for the night and come back the next day. Sometimes the windows key is stuck blue on the digital keyboard, sometimes not, but it doesn't make a difference either way to how the system responds.

  3. win 10 laptop Keyboard Controls.

    Hi,

    To assist you better please provide us few details,


              • What is the make and model of your computer?

              • Did you update the driver for the keyboard?

              • Are you facing any other issue with the keyboard?


    I would suggest you to follow these steps and try to run the Hardware troubleshooter:

    • Press Windows key + X on the keyboard.
    • Click on Control panel.
    • Type “Troubleshooting” without quotes in the Control panel
      search box.
    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on View all.
    • Click on Hardware and Devices troubleshooter and follow the on-screen instructions.

    If the issue still persists, Uninstall and Reinstall the Keyboard Drivers.

    Uninstall the Keyboard Drivers


    • Press “Windows Logo” + “X” keys on the keyboard.

    • Click on “Device Manager” from that list.

    • Search for the Keyboard from the device list, right click on it and then select “Uninstall”. On the un-installation window, if you have an option: “Delete the driver software for this device” you may select
      that and then remove the corrupted drivers from the computer.

    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete it and then restart the computer if prompted.

    Hope this information helps. Please get back with more details we are glad to help you.
