How do I fix my laptop keyboard not working on windows 11? It just randomly stopped working a few months ago but usb keyboards work fine any solutions? I dont think its hardware related as the combination for changing/switching the led backlight works completely fine but nothing else does. I dont know if Im in the right place this is my first time here.

Your second instruction says type “…..”
If I don’t have a keyboard working, how am I to type anything?????
By using a USB keyboard as mentioned in the original post.
Or by turning on the On-Screen Keyboard.
Try the instructions here
https://www.elevenforum.com/t/turn-on-or-off-on-screen-keyboard-in-windows-11.7255/
to turn on the on screen keyboard. There are several methods. One of them should work for you.

2023-05-28T08:49:12+00:00 Didn't work I'm not sure what's the problem at this point.
PS for some reason Microsoft used an account that I don't really use anymore I will use this from now
@ GRittinA and Grittin0126
It's not a violation of the Code of Conduct https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/page/faq#faqCodeConduct to have and use two accounts here, but it's a bad idea to post to the same thread with both. If you are getting help from an Independent Advisor, as you are, that person, because of their posting method, will only see posts from the original poster. They won't see posts from the other profile.
In this thread {VitorLima} won't see the reply from Grittin0126. You will have to reply from the GRittinA account that started the thread.
