    Spacebar on my laptop stopped working-what should I do?


    This started about a year ago. My spacebar would randomly stop working for days at a time and I would use on screen keyboard. It would sometimes randomly turn on but go off after a while though. Past 6 months it hasn't worked. I had my friend take it to someone and all she could remember was that he said it was a setting and not a physical issue. Sticky keys and filter keys are off. I have run troubleshoot as well. What should I do?-thanks!!

    :)

    Spacebar stopped working suddenly

    Hey,

    the space bar key stopped working. I tried the usual sticky key and restarting or uninstalling the driver.

    I don't know if its related but theres a UNITED KINGDOM KEYBOARD on the keyboard list bottom right but it doesn't show in the keyboard language preferences list , so I can't delete it.

    I guess it shows up the same time the space-bar stopped working.

    I tried Get-WinUserLanguageList
    in the power shell but I don't see it there.

    The spacebar worked briefly for a few seconds when windows was starting up but then it stopped.

    its a HP ZBook 17 G5 Base Model Mobile Workstation

    I updated everything..

    thoughts ?

    Windows Key + Spacebar not working

    Kathleen

    Tried using SFC as you suggested and it went through all the steps successfully, but Windows key + Spacebar still doesn't work.

    Looked at the link you gave and I see that one of the posts with a similar problem was using an HP Pavilion - same as me.

    But it was the keyboard shortcut was working till the upgrade.

    I've not tried Andre's suggestion yet.
