Both control keys stopped working?
« on: Fri, 10 October 2014, 08:17:40 »
Hey, both of my control keys have stopped working, Filco Majestouch 2 US Brown switches... I have no idea why?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You have lost all control...

This program will let you see every registered keystroke. If the keyboard is the issue (bad switches or controller) this program won't register your Control keys.

Diagnostics Step 1: Run tests.

Hey guys,

Just to update you all, I fixed it! Turns out the controller had come lose, I opened it up, pushed the controller back down and all works fine.

Thanks :)

I only came here to post I thought the title of this thread was birth control stopped working.
  Quoting me causes a posting error that you need to ignore.

When your birth control keys stop working, it’s a big problem.
