  1. Wrong keys typing on laptop keyboard


    Hi, I need help with my keyboard settings, because when I type for example the symbol of the number 7 appears this "/" but the symbol that appears in the key is this "&", this happens with other keys too, like with 3, appears this "·" but the symbol that is in the key is "#" But this is in not all the keys for example number 5 and 4 type the right symbol: "%" and "$".

    I really appreciate if someone can help me to figure this out.

    :)

  3. Windows 10 Laptop Keyboard Keys Acting Strange

    Hi,

    I realize that you are facing issues with the keyboard on your PC. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to the laptop to check if that helps.

    Further you may also use the onscreen keyboard to check if that helps.

    Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:


    • Press Windows key + R to get the run window.

    • Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
