    some buttons no longer work since the upgrade


    Windows finally bullied me into upgrading to Win10 from Win7 yesterday. Now some things that used to be clickable aren't.
    Like this little window, for example.... nothing on it responds to the mouseovers OR clicks.

    Some keys no longer work on keyboard since upgrade to Windows 10

    hi

    Thanks for your reply.

    #I did as you suggested

    Device Manager said working

    Update driver said had the correct one installed....

    So no solution as yet......

    Some keys no longer work on keyboard since upgrade to Windows 10

    Hi

    I have resorted to posting here as I have exhausted all the advice I could find and not been able to solve my problem....

    I have an acer aspire v3-111P- C19H

    I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to 10

    Since upgrading to Windows 10 some keys on my keyboard have stopped working.

    * `

    * Esc

    * 1

    * Tab

    * Caps Lock

    * Left Shift (right is fine)

    * Ctl

    * Fn

    * q

    * \

    I have checked all drivers for any updates

    I have uninstalled driver

    I have tried Hardware/devices troubleshooter

    I tried

    Method 2

    If the above step did not help to resolve the issue, try to download and run the Fixit tool from the link below.

    Hardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows:

    http://support.microsoft.com/gp/hardware_device_problems

    and got 'page not found'

    I am so frustrated having to switch from keyboard to on screen keyboard....

    I have seen lots of people seem to have very similar issues ...... is there a working fix for this problem????

    Fingers Crossed

    thanks

    Uninstall then reinstall Adobe Flash Player?

    How do you get to the flash player settings?

    Thanks, I'll try that.
    The settings come up when playing some video games on sites like Kongregate, but the screencap is from Duolingo... it pops up to ask permission to use the mic/camera/etc.

    I also have this popping up & not responding:

    That didn't work. I also replaced AVG with Avast, thinking that might be causing the problem, but it's still happening.

    And I updated my NVidia drivers.
    That didn't work, either.

    Hi, suggest trying with a clean boot and disable all non-essential non- microsoft shell/context menu additions using 'shellexview' (freeware) - make sure you hide MS items before disabling any; to be absolutely safe, create a restore point before doing this- and retry.

    Objective: make sure no 3rd party program inherited from your Win 7 installation is causing an issue.

    I'd rather try diagnosing the problem before committing to a clean install. If anyone has tips on tracking down the problem, I'd really appreciate it.

    Hi, I'm wondering if you misread, or are you unsure of the difference between a clean boot and clean installation?
    If so, a search engine will help you...
    Good luck

    some buttons no longer work since the upgrade

    So.... I turned off the pointer trails on my mouse, and it kind of works. I have to click buttons a few times before anything registers.
    Any insight as to what might be causing this?

  14. I have the same problem since one of the recent automatic updates to Windows installed itself. I am hoping the next update will correct the problem......hopefully someone has found a work around in the meantime
