  3. Windows Key on Keyboard

    Acer Predator Helios 500 Gaming Computer.

    The windows Key on my Keyboard has stopped working. After researching the problem I learned that if Gaming Mode is turned on that might be the problem. I went to Gaming in Settings then Game Mode. It says that Gaming Mode is turned on by default. There
    is no way listed to turn it off. Any suggestions on how to get my Windows Key on the Keyboard working again?
