How do you unlock the keyboard on a HP laptop?
Hold the right shift key for 8 seconds to lock and unlock the keyboard. Why is my HP laptop not letting me type? Update the driver, restart the computer, and then test the keyboard again to see if it's working again. Check your keyboard language settings. If you can, check your keyboard settings to make sure you're using the correct settings for the keyboard that's installed. Go to Start > Settings > Time & Language.
