Windows 10: Why do the 1st one or two characters I type on the keyboard, as data entry for Word, NOT...

Hello,


Can someone in the Community help me with this ?


The exact same issue happens when I type data entries for a 3rd Party Ham Radio application.


It's like the time-slot for those first 2 characters is not being opened to allow the data to get into MS/Word, or other applications.


Is there some "Windows internal command" that is set, and needs to be discovered, and UN-set ?


Warm regards,

Gary

Windows 10: Keyboard typing wrong characters

Hello Pierre,

If changing the language layout for your keyboard didn’t resolve the concern, there is a possibility that
AutoCorrect is not set up properly. To check the AutoCorrect entry, follow these steps:

1. Open
Word.

2. Click
File.

3. Select
Options.

4. Click
Proofing.

5. Select
AutoCorrect Options.

6. Look for the AutoCorrect entries that convert the letters and function keys into numbers and special characters.

7. Select and
Delete the entry.

Let us know if you need additional assistance.
