Start Key on Keyboard not Working

No problems in the troubleshooter nor Input tab for dxdiag.

I don’t believe it is anything physically wrong with the keyboard since every other key works fine. I tried removing the key cap, there was no dirt, so I tried pressing the key with no keycap on and it still didn’t work.

Windows reverting to wrong input language

Input Method = Keyboard

Are you finding pressing certain keys results in the wrong thing?

I find having the input method the same as the physical keyboard works best.
