  1. The following keys stopped working: "end", "home", "Delete", "PrtScr" & "arrow keys".


    I am working on a laptop with Windows 10 Home as the operating system with Service Tag - 3DSGYD2 and about 3 weeks ago the following keys stopped working: "end", "home", "Delete", "PrtScr" & "arrow keys". Is there a fix to this problem or do i have to update some drivers somewhere one said to update the printer drivers, another a Dell Tech updated drivers to another device under device manager can't remember which one? Thanks for any help you can provide me. Oh, one more thing - the backspace key works somewhat like the "Del" key worked. The combination of "Ctrl", "Alt", "Del" does not work and substituting "Backspace" in place of "Del" also doesn.t does not work. However the "Ctrl", "Alt", "Backspace" deletes the word immediately to the left of the cursor. Seems like these special keys got all jumbled up and now don't want to work at all. Thanks again for any help you can provide me.

    :)

  2. 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?

  3. Windows + Arrow Keys Stops working

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

    Please provide more information to help you better:


    • Are you using a USB keyboard?

    • Have you made any changes to the PC prior to the issue?

    • What is the make and model of your keyboard?

    Since you are able to use the other shortcut keys, means that the keyboard works fine. This issue can occur if the
    Arrow keys on the keyboard are faulty.

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps:

    Method 1:

    Try using the Arrow keys on other programs. Check if they are functional.

    Most of the sytems have “Fn” key or a Function Lock key. This key can be used to
    Enable and Disable the Arrow keys. Check if the
    Arrow keys function after toggling the Fn key.

    Method 2:

    Try connecting a different keyboard to your computer. Try the shortcut keys once again. Check if they works.

    Reply with necessary information and the result to help you further. Thank you.
