    When using and typing into windows explorer search ,random letters, numbers and symbols are showing. Keyboard works fine in all apps and browsers. When I use an app or browser then return to windows explorer search it will be correct for a couple of minutes before not working again. If I go to the search and touch the "A" key on my keyboard 5 times in a row I will get 5 random letters, numbers or symbols rather than "A".I am using a brand new 10 day old Dell Inspiron laptop which when received I updated from Windows 10 to Windows 11. It is fully updated with no outstanding updates or optio

    I have a problem accessing the Windows store (and using the Netflix app). When I type into the search box, random numbers and letters appear.

    I have a problem with Windows Store. When I type in the search box, random numbers and letters appear. The same thing happened with the Netflix app. I could access Netflix via Firefox.

  3. Keyboard typing random letters

    I am running Windows 10 build 18945 and random applications (most of them) are getting typed in random letters. I have found many things saying check your input language but i only have one that is English (US).

    And the random letter a key will type is not always the same. I can hold down 'a' for instance and it'll type a series of numbers and letters. So it is not consistent

    Example, copy and pasted holding down 'a'

    One of the only applications that correctly recognizes the input is Firefox

    Pretty sure it isn't a hardware issue, because it is not in all applications.

    This is an integrated keyboard in the Lenovo ThinkPad T430s

    It also seems to be intermittent

    EDIT If i remember right, this started around disabling credential and device guard (I can't use any emulator/virtualization with them on because the virtualization is then exclsuively used by Hyper-V, and i needed to run Intel HAXM)

    Windows Explorer Replacement?

    j0 all.

    The thing is, I have a very annoying problem with the Windows Explorer: It crashes. Quite often and quite random. I have NO idea what the problem is, and I've searched the computer for viruses, trojans and everything, but there is nothing I can find.

    So, I decided to drop it and use something else. Any suggestions? It must be easy to use, of course. *Stick Out Tongue When using and typing into windows explorer search ,random letters, numbers and symbols are... :p

    Peace
