    Mixed up Keys


    I'm having trouble figuring out how to get my keys back to normal. Today, I logged on and found that my volume up became esc, my brightness buttons were fullscreen and the other one pops up some weird coding screen, etc. Most of the other keys haven't changed.

    I've went through keyboard setting and such but can't find out how the fix this. Please help, thank you.

    :)

    Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...


    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.
