  1. Laptop Keyboard Won't Type


    Hello! I use a Dell Inspiron 13, which I got a little over a year ago. I was using it today to type up an email, and had to move, so I simply closed my laptop and headed out. When I opened it again and tried to use the keyboard on the laptop, it did not type anything. I went through and installed any updates that were pending, tried updating/reinstalling the keyboard drivers and those didn't work. I also tried turning off/on sticky keys and filer keys, but it doesn't seem like that does much maybe I'm doing it wrong?. I've also restarted my laptop several times. Does anyone know anything els

    :)

  2. Laptop keyboard typing 2 characters

    Thanks, Sanjay. Laptop keyboards usually require a replacement in their lifetime, so I suggest contacting the manufacturer for the next steps.

    Logitech wireless keyboard won't type anything

    I fixed this issue by taking the following steps:

    • I uninstalled the keyboard from the devices under Device Manager
    • I rebooted

    and the keyboard was reinstalled with the same driver.

    Now it is typing fine.

    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.
