I cant type the number seven on my keyboard

When I try to type the number "seven" on my keyboard, it doesnt work. The only time the number registers is when i am putting in my pin to unlock my computer. All of my number keys work but the number seven. I have tried multiple different keyboards and have the same problem on all of them. I have also checked drivers and they are all up to date. Does anyone have a fix for this?

number two stuck on keyboard

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



This issue might be happening because of the faulty device.

1. Since when are you facing this issue?
   
2. Have you recently made any changes on the device?
   
3. What is the make and model number of the device?
   
4. Is this issue happening on Laptop or desktop keyboard?
   
5. Which Operating system is installed on your device?
   
   
   

Step 1: If the issue is causing with the faulty driver, run the Hardware Troubleshooter

1. Click on Start.
   
2. Search for Troubleshoot and click on it.
   
3. Click on Keyboard and Run the troubleshooter.
   

You may also refer the article to
fix issues related to keyboard in Windows.



Step 2: You can also try with “Onscreen keyboard” to check the working of numeric key.

1. Open run command (Windows and R key), type in
   OSK.
   
2. Use the numeric 2 and check the status.
   

If the issue is only with the specific numeric key (Number 2), I suggest you to check with the manufacturer for the further assistance.



Hope it helps.
