My laptop's s key is driving me insane. Sometimes it works and other times it does (right now it's working). I tried to pinpoint the issue but trying various things but all of my troubleshooting methods work sometimes then stop working>thought it was a hardware issue so i took they key, they plastic nipple and the "hinge", cleaned up everything but nada >thought maybe the plastic film thingy wasn't making contact when i press so i put a bit of foil between the 2 layers which worked until it didn't>thought maybe it's not a hardware issue but a software one so i reinstalled the keyboard drivers which worked until it didn't>sometimes spamming the key will make it work for a bit until it stopsi'm at my wits end, it's one of those new integrated keyboards so i can't even replace the thing. Hell, i don't even know how or why it's working now. My laptop is an acer aspire 5 a515 by the way.
remap some other key that you never use, like the tilde~
>>1456797the thought crossed my mind but i'm looking for a possible solution before doing that
>>1456798Well way back in like 2008 I had a netbook, one of the traces on the keyboard broke.I couldn't figure out how to fix it without delaminating a bunch of crap, so I bought a bluetooth keyboard instead.
