Greetings,
Somehow, I disabled my left shift key.
the right shift still works.
I do not know how I did this - but I need to put it back...

Thanks!!!
Jay
 
Hi Jay,

My guess is that your keyboard needs cleaning or replacing. To rule out a hardware
problem, try using a different keyboard and see if the Left Shift Key works on it.

Thanks for the suggestion..

I have forgotten where to find the keyboard re-mapping utility/application.
The shift key works again after rebooting, so I don't think it is hardware -
but my fat fingers that hit the wrong key..
I have done this twice this year...

Thanks again,
Jay

For future reference you might want to take a look at the Accessability
Options for keyboards. These are the options used to modify how input
and output is handled for those people who deal with physical disabilities.

Start>> Settings>> Control Panel>> Accessibility Options>> Keyboard Tab
