EHLO 6 Reputation points2021-12-06T14:40:08.95+00:00 Same exact issue. I'm on Windows 11 latest. Started with the native app downloaded from messenger. com. It refuses ALL keyboard input in the app. I've tried everything. I uninstalled it and installed the Messenger app from the Microsoft Store and it was working fine for about a week, and now it is also not accepting any keyboard input.

If checkbox has no checkmark then select it to activate and quit autoruns and restart system and look if input in FB Messenger is possibe again.

I had suggested sysinternals Autoruns, because i found it easier, as people who have this problem, surely previously had deactivated the service wich such a similar tool, like Autoruns, O&O Shutup10 and Win10privacy.

Thank you for your question.
I believe the best thing to do is remove the update that was made and wait a few days to install it again.
To remove the update follow the instructions below:
Instructions: go to settings> update and security> click View update history> at the top of the screen click Uninstall updates> when opening the new screen look for the newly installed update and then right click on it and select Uninstall, wait for the process is complete and then restart your computer to complete the uninstallation completely.
Also, if the update was in-app only, I recommend that you remove the app and reinstall it again.
If the answer is helpful, please vote positively and accept the answer.

2021-12-29T20:19:32.95+00:00 Hello!
I have the same issue on my private Win10 laptop of the last version 21H1 and latest updates. The problem appeared in October or November.
The App still works on my second install on my Laptop, which runs with WIN 11, and it does also have no issue on my business PC on Win10Pro 21H1. (also uninstalled and installed again, so newest app versions).
I assume that somewhat specific on my Win10 Home 21H1 is wrong. but what? I also have tries all what i was reading here and more (Filesystem and Systemfile Check and repair).
No matter if it is the Store app or the executable installer.
I can´t type anything into textfields. It appered sometime stated above, then i logged out, and then it was neither possible to login by entering email address and password. Can´t type them also, no reation.
If anyone has an idea?
Greetings....
