Windows 7: Windows logo key issue

michmarz24 · 10 Dec 2009

Hi all, I am having an issue with my windows logo key not working. I have done many searches and have yielded nothing that would be a solution. I don't know if there is a turn on/off or if a known program disables it or not.

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

There is no switch for it that I know of. I would suspect that it is either a defective keyboard or driver. What are you using?

I am using a Logitech G11 keyboard, didn't have any problems with anything until my shortly after my Windows 7 upgrade (when I noticed).

Edit: I just switched to an old keyboard...after a couple reboots it started working, so I am guessing it's like you said. Used a microsoft keyboard and it worked...maybe it's just MS wanting all proprietary products to be used...lol.

Hello Mich,

You might see if this may the issue, but it does sounds like it may be a G11 keyboard driver issue. Be sure to have a Windows 7 driver installed for it.

Hope this helps,

I found a simple Fix, i went under Computer , Device Manager, under Keyboard. Delete the drivers, there are two on mine. Unplug and replug, and Should work. Reply to Thread so i know how many people got helped out with this. Thanks
