HP 15-r029wm Notebook PC windows 10 keyboard not working properly

Hi,

I realize that the keyboard is not working properly. I will try to help you with this issue.

• 
  Did you make any changes to the PC prior to this issue?
  

Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to check if that helps.

Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:

• 
  Press Windows key + R to get the run window.
  
• 
  Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.
  

Keep us informed to help you further.

Thank you.

 

think my touchpad isnt working

Greetings,

My name is Rhaine, I'm Independent Community Volunteer. I’m so glad assisting you today

I am also using Windows 10 pc. Let us work together to sort this out.

You can refer to this link on how to fix touch pad issues with Windows 10

On Start , search for Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.

Under Mice and other pointing devices, select your touchpad, open it, select the Driver tab, and select Update Driver.

If Windows doesn't find a new driver, look for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

If those steps didn't work, try uninstalling your touchpad driver: open Device Manager, right-click (or press and hold) the touchpad driver, and select Uninstall.

Restart your device and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

If that didn't work, try using the generic driver that comes with Windows. Here's how: in Device Manager, right-click (or press and hold) your touchpad driver > Update driver software... > Browse my computer for driver software > Let me pick from a list of
device drivers on my computer, select HID compliant mouse, select Next, and follow the instructions to install it.

Fix the Touchpad is not working by running the troubleshooter

Step 1: Go to the Settings app, select the Update and Security tab.

Step 2: Navigate to the Troubleshoot option on the left-hand side and select the Hardware and Devices to run the troubleshooter.

Step 3: This will start checking for the missing driver.

Step 4: Click the Next button to complete the Troubleshooting process.

Step 5: Restart your PC for the changes to take effect. Check whether the touchpad responds or not. If the laptop touchpad is working now, you’ve solved the problem.

If issue persist I highly suggest for you to contact or go to your manufacturers website to download and install the updated touch pad drivers.

I hope the information above helps. Please let me know how it goes.

Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

With Warm Regards,
