    S key does odd things


    After updating on the 17th my s key when pressed changes my mouse cursor's look, freezes my screen, and when I click and drag there are options underneath the highlighted area. I couldn't find anything on Google and this happens every time I try to use my s key on it's own. I've tried restarting it, uninstalling the update, reinstalling the update, resetting my keyboard, and turning off things like hotkeys but it won't stop. I have some images that show two of the new occurrences, but I can't show the screen freezing very well. None of my keys are stuck down and I just woke up and tried to play a game of tf2 and discovered the issue. Any help would be appreciated.S key does odd things [​IMG]S key does odd things [​IMG]

    Hi,

    I suggest you to check if you have any new updates available for Windows.

    To check the update history follow the below steps:

    • Click on Windows Key.
    • Click on settings
    • Click on windows updates and security.
    • Click on advanced options
    • Select view update history.
    • Now check if there is any new updates installed.

    Let us know the status of the issue to assist you further.

    Thank you.

  3. Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
