Tap the keyboard icon on the taskbar. It is next to the date and time. See if that works.
I have noticed that in tablet mode it doesn't always appear automatically

If you tap an input field with the Surface Pen, you get the Handwriting Bar. But if you tap an input field with your finger, you get the virtual keyboard.
