Jhena Grey 25615 Report post Posted June 8, 2012 You could copy the 'W' and just paste it when you need it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
backrubman 64800 Report post Posted June 8, 2012 Yes, you can even cut and paste a 'w' from some where :) People do! Until you get a new keyboard of course. If it is a notebook, then even these are pretty easy to get a new replacement keyboard for on eBay but ordering the right one and replacing it is not and job for anyone other than someone used to doing that. We find it's usually just dirt or debris and can be often be brought back to life anyways without having to replace the keyboard in the case of a single key failure like this. Until then if using a windows PC, holding down ALT while pressing 87 gets you an upper case W and ALT 119 gets you a lower case w. I _ish you _ell in getting this straightened out!

Max Luther 751 Report post Posted June 11, 2012 1) You can pop the "W" key off of your keyboard, and clean it or replace the rubber foot if necessary. Use a Q-Tip, soaked with Isopropyl Alcohol, that should eliminate any grime that's causing your W key to stick. 2) Your "W" Likely doesn't work because it's either got too much crap gummed inside of it, or the rubber foot (it's a piece of rubber between the plastic "W" key, and the circuit board inside your computer) was disloged. In either case, as it doesn't work either way - you might as well pop it off and find out what's going on =) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leber 1328 Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Check your locale settings. It may be set to a language that doesn't have "W". If you had never touched the Regional Settings on this computer, please ignore this post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satin 1237 Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Could you not turn your keyboard upside down so the 'M' key would do the job for you? :D 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you had never touched the Regional Settings on this computer, please ignore this post. But sometimes Windows decides on it's own freewill that it wants to talk another language by switching over by itself. My computer liked switching from English to French Canadian on it's own accord.
