16Fix Keyboard Problems Using Keyboard Troubleshooter in Windows 11/10 [Guide]
If your Windows desktop or laptop keyboard is not working properly and may be typing wrong characters, then run the built-in Keyboard Troubleshooter in Windows 11/10 to fix the problems automatically. Troubleshooters are the automated tools in Windows PCs that help users fix some common issues on their computers. Microsoft has developed dedicated troubleshooters to resolve different issues. You can access all the troubleshooters from Windows 11/10 Settings. Keyboard Troubleshooter is one of these troubleshooters. You can run it to resolve keyboard-related problems.
If the keyboard was working fine before but suddenly stops working altogether, this indicates a power or software issue. Start with the basics: If you have a wired keyboard, check that your connection to the computer is stable and in place. Unplug it and plug it back in again if necessary. For wireless keyboards, check that they still have battery life/new batteries and plug them into a source of power to see if that addresses the issue.
