certain keys wont respond

Hi,

Here are some possible fix -

1. Update Windows
2. Update Keyboard Drivers
3. Install/Uninstall the keyboard drivers
4. Plug and unplug the keyboard
5. Try keyboardtester.org

Hope these steps will help you to make your keyboard working properly.

• Dust or Debris: Dirt or dust under the keys may cause them to not register. Try cleaning the keyboard.
  • Solution: Gently clean the keyboard using compressed air or a soft brush.
• Sticky Keys: If something has spilled on the keyboard, certain keys might be stuck.
  • Solution: Clean the keyboard using a damp cloth with a small amount of rubbing alcohol, or consider removing the keycaps (if possible) to clean underneath.

• Filter Keys (Windows): This feature sometimes ignores repeated or brief keystrokes.
  • Solution:
    1. Go to Settings > Ease of Access > Keyboard.
    2. Make sure "Filter Keys" is turned off.
• Accessibility Settings (Mac):
  • Solution: Go to System Preferences > Accessibility > Keyboard, and ensure features like Slow Keys or Mouse Keys are disabled.

• Test Keyboard Input: Open a different app (e.g., Notepad, Word) to see if the issue persists.
  • If it works elsewhere, the issue could be specific to one app.

• Plug in another keyboard (USB or Bluetooth) to see if the issue still occurs. If it works, your keyboard may be malfunctioning.

• Update Keyboard Drivers:
  • On Windows: Go to Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right-click your keyboard, and select Update Driver.
• Restart Your Computer: A restart may solve temporary software glitches.

• If none of the above work, the keyboard could be damaged and may need to be replaced.

• Test Key Presses: Use an online keyboard tester to check if the keys are registering at all.
  • Solution: Go to a website like keyboard-tester.org and press the unresponsive keys. If the keys don't show up, it's likely a hardware issue with the keyboard.
