Windows 10: Why does my windows key only work until I open a game?

I have tried many things, game mode is off, both on the computer and on the keyboard. I have a logitech g213 if that's relevant. It works fine on any application, but it automatically stops working when I open a game. The games I have tried are Minecraft and Valorant.

Audio drivers not working in windows 10(z170 gaming pro)

Hi Mandeep,

Sorry for the delayed response.

• What do you mean when you say "front jack is not working getting noise in that?"
• Can you hear sound through earphones or external Speakers?

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

• Open Device Manager (Windows key + letter 'X').
• Click on the option View over the top and choose Show Hidden Devices.
• Expand "Sound, Video and Game Controllers."
• Delete the drivers that are greyed out.
• Restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

Hope this helps.

 

Keyboard Volume Keys not working while in-game

I happen to have used the Tt Challenger Pro keyboard in the past, and the volume keys worked flawlessly in every game, so it's indeed a weird problem. I would suggest the same thing sneekypeet suggested, using the keyboard software and assign this function to a hotkey, but you said that didn't work either, so yeah...
