  1. Touch keyboard not opening when touching a text field on webpages


    Hi. We have this issue appearing more and more often and I tried everything without success.Whenever you click on a webpage text or textarea field on any website, the touch keyboard doesn't show anymore. We have Win 10 LTSC version and it used to work very well until this annoying and SHOW-STOPPING problem...I obviously enabled in the Typing settings the option "Show the touch keyboard when no keyboard attached", but no luch. I checked the services and all are OK, I scanned with sfc and many other stuff, but nothing worked. Does anyone has any advice.

    :)

    Touch keyboard lacks autocorrect, Word Flow, etc. in certain apps and text fields

    The touch keyboard in Windows 10 has some pretty great features such as autocorrect and Word Flow, but as far as I can tell, the only place where both of these features work is Discord on Edge.

    In Sticky Notes, Word, and most other websites in Edge, Word Flow works, and the keyboard shows word suggestions on the top, but there's no autocorrect. In Chrome and Sublime Text, there's no word suggestions, autocorrect, or Word Flow. Here's what I'm experiencing with Word Flow:

    The answer a Microsoft Agent gives is:

    It's rather frustrating for me that autocorrect and Word Flow don't work in so many apps. How can I enable these features even when the specific app or text field apparently isn't configured to support them?

    Hi Edwin....

    Yes, it works on 8.1, at least on my surface pro 3.

    Couldn't do a screenshot cause can't get to Snipping tool while keyboard is up, so I did a "step recording". See attached. Pardon the background, it's my Granddaughter! Cheers! *Cool

  4. Touch keyboard not opening when touching a text field on webpages

    Touch Keyboard icon (in taskbar) when clicked on does nothing


    I did this and it has no affect on the Touch Keyboard. I believe this option pertains only to the On-Screen Keyboard.
    So if you are able to see the Touch Keyboard on you non-touch system, there must be a setting somewhere I'm not seeing...perhaps a value in the Registry needs to be changed.
    Thanks for the reply.
