OK, I've attempted to find answers for this issue here and elsewhere and it is driving me insane.
I'm on a corporate issue Lenovo w530 laptop [aka HUGEBRICK] running Windows 7.
Somehow the up and left arrow keys have assumed some sort of uber command mode in windows apps including Word and Outlook. Now, these arrows cannot be used to move throughout text in these apps, but only to minimize and close windows (and no, I am not holding down and CTRL/WIN/FUN keys at the same time).
I'm thinking somehow some Windows shortcut or damn Sticky key type setting is turned on. I've attempted to follow tutorials and turn off Sticky keys to no avail. I've swapped keyboard settings to another language and back again... still can't get them to work as they typically do.
I just want to use these keys while editing text and its killing me.
