Windows 10: Shift + Arrow Keys to select functionality stopped working

Hello, I've recently lost the ability to select text or cells by holding shift key and using arrow keys to highlight/select.


I've checked scroll lock, sticky keys and restarted a number of times. My shift and arrow keys work fine independently. Control + Arrow keys are working

fine.


Searched for a similar fix and have not come across anything that has worked... any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is a functionality I use every 5 seconds it seems (now that I am noticing its absence)!


Thanks in advance,

Ben

down arrow key stopped working

My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

 

Shift Keys + Arrow key are not working properly

In my PC Left shift key+ Any Arrow key is not working. Which is used to select text. However, Right shift+left arrow is working. This all was working properly just before a few days. I am using
windows 10. I have not enabled sticky keys or anything else other than normal settings. Please help.

 

Ctrl+Shift+Arrow key combination doesn't work

Thanks Marvin,

The Scroll Lock function is OFF.

Ctrl+Arrow works as expected, jumping to the begining of the next word

Shift+Arrow works as expected, selecting the next character

Ctrl+Shift+Arrow does nothing at all

Regards
