    How do I disable a keyboard?

    I spilled water on my laptop, so I've just bought a new keyboard.

    The new keyboard fits perfectly on top of my laptop but, of course, when I type, the remaining keys that do work on my laptop are pressed too.

    I tried pressing shift but this just locked both keyboards.

    I also uninstalled the keyboard, but when I rebooted it was back again!

    ^ On Windows 11?

    In the search box, enter device manager.
    Scroll down the list until you get to keyboards and expand the menu.
    You should see your internal and external keyboard in the list of keyboards
    Select the Internal Keyboard and right click to get pop up menu. Select Properties and driver tab. Then select uninstall device (advanced)

    Thanks Troy.

    It keeps reappearing when I turn it back on though!

    Second and third posts in the link see to that.

    I think you can use either method

    It honestly wasn't.

    It was water between beers.
