keyboard

Hi. I have a Surface Laptop 3 with windows 10 on it. Everything was Ok but the keyboard suddenly stopped working. I tried several methods but nothing worked. The keyboard works fine in UEFI menu and other non-windows sections! I even tired clean reset my device. Everything was removed but the...

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone has run into this issue. I've been tearing my hair out. I have a Surface Pro 4. It has just cropped up today for some reason. When I type with my on-screen keyboard, it will randomly refuse to type certain characters. For example, I'll start writing an email...

Factory Reset the Surface Book 3, model "1873", it then asks me which keyboard region I would like to be in, but then I am unable to select a keyboard region because it disables my keyboard. The keyboard does not work during the setup process. Why does the keyboard not work, and how to fix this...

A few months ago I bought a Surface Pro 7 that I use mainly to write documents and update a customer database. From the beginning I observed the following problem with the keyboard and touch pad. I open a Word document and start writing. When I stop typing for 30 seconds or more, the keyboard...

Hi guys I’m new here, hope to partake & learn a lot. Just bought my surface pro 6 with type cover and pen. I have an issue straight off the bat I’m hoping I can get some help for. The following keys on the type cover do not work at all: ZXCV. I have reinstalled the keyboard drivers. I’ve...

I have a bizarre issue with my pro 4 surface keyboard. Both shift keys, numbers 7 8 and 9, r, t, and the del key do not work all the time. Numbers will sometimes work if I press and hold as do the r and t. However, for no reason at all they will starting working like normal for a while then stop...

I unfortunately spilled some Sprite over my Surface Laptop and while there seems to be no internal damage, as it was only a very small amount and it was turned off a few keys are now very sticky and itsi very uncomfortable to type... I did get the Alcantara cleaned up tho... Now what I wanted to...

My SP Type Cover won't light up. I've pressed F2 over and over, trying it with the Function key switched both on and off. I've looked through the settings but I'm failing to find anything. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I just un-docked my SP4 to use it as a tablet device and couldn't find the on screen keyboard. It usually pops up automatically when I want to type something, and if it doesn't, there's always been a keyboard icon on the right-hand side of the taskbar that would bring it up. Any ideas where it's...

Hello everyone, I'm starting a job from home that requires a boot up from a USB drive. I finally figured out how to boot from the USB (I'm really not very tech savvy) by accessing the UEFI and disabling secure boot. My issue is, my keyboard doesn't work while booted from the USB. It lights up...

Hi! My Typecover has gone bonzo over the weekend. Typing "J" gets me "6j;". Typing "R" gets me a "tab-QR". Typing "Backspace" puts my cursor in the middle of a word or something. The problem is CONSISTENT on each issue, most letters are FINE... so I think this has to be some kind of...

I detest the Onscreen Keyboard on my SP4 since the day I got it. I am accustomed to the excellent SwiftKey keyboard on my phone, so perhaps am I doing something wrong with the Surface. I find the Surface's handling of misspelling, predictive text, and suggestions is mindbogglingly awful...

Anyone that already updated to the Fall Creators Update can confirm that the on-screen Standard Keyboard Layout(the one with all the keys) is missing? I´ve updated a few hours ago and noticed that the option to select the standard layout is missing, either on the keyboard options or in general...

I have read a few posts and tried most of the solutions however nothing has worked so far. Please help if you can. The issue: I detached my keyboard for about an hour to read and when i reattached it no longer works. As it was just sitting there and it worked before hand I am ruling out damage...

The (official Microsoft) keyboard for the Surface 2017 doesn't appear have a fingerprint sensor, and that there are SP4 keyboards with and without the sensor. I've never had a laptop with a fingerprint sensor, but find the one on my iPhone to be quite handy and suspect I'd use it on the Surface...

Hello all, I've a surface Pro 4 (i5 8gb) as well as a touch keyboard. It generally works well. I do a lot of closing the keyboard and opening without the computer shutting down (Annoyingly the screen turns off, which seems to cause delay with recovery of touchpad function), but I have noted...

HI! Surface Book user here. I REALLY want to improve my posture & my life at my keyboard, and one major way to do that is to have my screen higher, while keyboard stays same. This is why wireless keyboards exist. But it seems CRAZY to buy ANOTHER wireless keyboard, when I already have a...
