    Windows key not functional and apps being weird.


    I've been experiencing a problem where 15-30 minutes after I boot up my PC, the System app opens up whenever I press my windows key. This comes with other issues, including not holding down keys and not selecting messages occasionally. This happens at random, and I have yet to find a cause. I have updated most drivers relating to my keyboard, and it still hasn't worked. Does anyone know a fix?

    :)

    Hi,

    To better understand your concern about the app in Windows 10, please answer the following:

    • Are you pertaining to the Photos app?
    • Did you lose the function after updating the app?
    If you lost the function after an update was installed on your computer, you can try the steps on this

    to restore from a system restore point. Doing this will revert your computer's state to when you haven't updated the system.
