Couple of questions for ya:
1. What kind of keyboard?
2. When you mention "updating my keyboard in task manager", could you elaborate on what specific options within the task manager you selected?
Internal pc keyboard and external keyboard both ain’t working and I miss spelled I meant device manager where I put HID keyboard
Gotcha, what model of keyboard is it
Most likely, if you disabled/uninstalled/updated the driver directly within device manager, you'll need to go grab the driver from the manufacturer and reinstall it
If you're lucky, Windows update will grab the driver for you upon rebooting
so whatcha mean is all I have to do is update my windows
*update your specific keyboard's drivers
Windows update might do it, but that is not guaranteed and it might use a generic driver
Best bet is to go on the keyboard manufacturer's site and download their driver
So this was my keyboard I’m so confused rn
send a picture of the keyboard
like picture of my keys ?
of the whole keyboard
Like this?
This whole time I thought you were talking about some type of wired keyboard lol
You'll have to check on your laptop manufacturer's site for the keyboard drivers if they have any
wired keyboard ain’t working too
If they don't have keyboard drivers listed, then reaching out to their support team will be the safest bet to make sure you don't get any weird drivers
what kind of wired keyboard
Like any?
I have a Logitech one with me rn
someone suggested me to open USB DEVIEW
It will identify your keyboard by name
And will tell you if it's plugged in
If it's happening for all keyboards, then you likely have a slightly bigger issue at hand.
I'd start by scanning for hardware changes (in device manager) then restart Windows
Windows should provide a generic driver for most keyboards after that restart
