Dysfunctional keyboard: How to deal with a damaged keyboard key

If getting a new keyboard is not part of your options, you can use your computer with a non-functioning keyboard key, as you may want to check:

Restart your computer

Check your keyboard connection

Run a virus/malware scan

Clean your keyboard

Update your computer

Workout 1: Use copy-paste

Workout 2: Use the virtual keyboard

Workout 3: Redesign / reorder your keyboard keys

Restart your computer

The first thing you need to do when you encounter any problems with your computer is to restart your device. Some errors and interruptions will be fixed when you restart your computer. To restart your PC:

1. Click on the Windows icon at the bottom left of your PC screen. Then, click the Power button.

2. Click the Restart Art / Shutdown button.

Check your keyboard connection

If you are using an external keyboard, check that the connection between your keyboard and the USB / PS2 connector is correct. Check for a loose connection, pull out the USB / PS2 connector, and plug it in again.

Run a virus scan

Viruses and malware can do strange things to your computer, including crashing software related to your keyboard operations. To scan your computer for viruses, do the following:

1. Click on the Windows icon at the bottom left of your PC screen. Then, click the Settings button.

2. From Settings, click the Update & Security button.

3. On the Update & Security page, click on the Windows Security option.

4. From the Windows Security page, scan for viruses/malware.

Clean your keyboard

Sometimes, dirt and small debris can clog your keyboard. Use a brush and blower to remove the keyboard from debris that has accumulated over time.

Update your computer

Updating your computer can help resolve any issues related to this. To update your PC do the following:

1. Click on the Windows icon at the bottom left of your PC screen. Then, click the Settings button.

2. From Settings, click the Update & Security button.

3. On the Update & Security page, click on the Windows Update option.

4. From the Windows Update page, check for available updates.

Workout 2: Use the virtual keyboard

If your physical keyboard key does not work after applying the above steps, you can use a virtual keyboard. To use the window on-screen keyboard, do the following:

1. Search for “On-Screen Keyboard” by clicking on the Search button in the window.

2. From the list of results, tap the On-Screen Keyboard app.

3. The on-screen keyboard opens. You can click the key to simulate a physical keyboard stroke.

Workout 2: Copy and paste

If for some reason the on-screen keyboard is not available on your computer, you can use the copy and paste function to continue your work. It may be a little awkward, but it works.

To do this trick, suppose the “A” key does not work on your keyboard. Search for texts with the letter “A”, and then the copy and paste function to input the letter A into your drafts.

Workout 3: Remap / reorder your keyboard keys

You can rearrange the key you rarely use and change it again to input the keyboard key of your choice. For example, your SHIFT key button will not work. You can enter a rarely used key, say insert so that when you press the insert key, your computer reads it when you press the shift key.

There are many applications online that can do this, but SharpCase is simple, open-source, and free to use.

You have learned what to do if your keyboard key does not work. If you have questions about any of the information provided in this article, we would love to hear in the comments section.
