ft and right arrow keys have no effect in TEAMS BUT left-arrow + CTRL moves left one word, and right-arrow + CTRL moves right one word. So it is clear the arrow keys on the keyboard are functioning and sending signals to the computer. I also tried my laptop built in keyboard & the number pad. All have the same effect. What could be making the arrows by themselves not work? (Up and Down arrows work normally.)
1. Is it a laptop or desktop computer?
Laptop
2. What is the make and model of the keyboard?
HP laptop keyboard & logitech external
3. Was it working fine earlier?
Yes at most an hour before
4. Were there any recent changes made on the computer prior to the issue?
No. Maybe I inadvertently hit some hot key?

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
How many thousands of people have to have the same issue before Microsoft fixes the problem with more than a reply to just turn it off and on again? It's the arrow key for crying out loud! Not a complex customized algorithm people are running.
What a useless response. And always the same response with you guys - ignore the actual issue and tell everyone to reboot. Rebooting your computer everyday because of a bug in Teams that MS refuses to acknowledge or fix is not a "solution".
If you don't have anything of value to add don't even bother responding.
Microsoft needs to fix this bug. Telling us to quit the program and restart it is not a solution. It is a bug of the program.
It's Microsoft! You will quit/restart and like it!
Nice Find! Thank you! Less hassle than restarting at least, and maybe a hint to MS developers.
Having the same problem. Found out that if I open the chat in a new window, the arrows start working again.
