Hi,

In the Start Menu, at the bottom type in keyboard
and in the options that show up in the Control Panel section choose: Change how the keyboard works.
Look at the Filter Keys option. Is it checked ON? If so, that's probably the cause of your problem.
I think if you uncheck Filter Keys your keyboard will go back to normal.

Thanks



Take Care
bye
