Ctrl A / C / V / Ctrl-Alt-Delete not working since now

I've had the same issue in Windows 10. Could not find any solution although I tried lots of suggestions found on the internet. Upgraded my Lenovo Ideapad to Windows 11 and problem solved.

Now a month later, at once, the same problem. All shortcuts with CTRL-button do not work. Not selecting, no copy, no paste, not even ctrl-alt-del.

I checked the key its self but that looks fine. Both CTRL buttons do not work. My right button has never been touched. So I'm pretty sure its a software issue.

Reinstalling firmware did not work. Settings in CMD look OK. when i use my right mouse butten I see the shortcut text like CTRL+C etc.

system scan no issues. I get crazy, lol.

Anyone had the same issue and solved this? Please share your solution. Thank you!

    Hi,

    Try a "clean boot" and see if it makes a difference:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135

    If a clean boot does resolve the issue there is a section in the article "How to determine what is causing the problem by performing a clean boot".

    Reset the computer to start normally afterward.

    As a general precaution create a System Restore Point prior to initiating a clean boot.
