Can't Disable Keyboard Windows 10

[lonelywizard]

My internal keyboard went crazy after i spilled something on it and i was using an external keyboard disabling the internal one...But then i upgraded my computer to Windows 10...Now i can't see my internal keyboard on device manager so i can't disable it...Anyone has any idea how to disable my internal laptop keyboard on Windows 10?

Did you check under the Human Interface Devices in the Device Manager? It could be hard to identify since there seems to be quite a few items there, but something to look at. There seems to be no separate entry for keyboards in Windows 10.

 

[lonelywizard]

no,there is a seperate entry for keyboards but it only has my external keyboard shown there,before in win7 it also showed my internal keyboard but not anymore...

>Did you check under the Human Interface Devices in the Device Manager?
HID compliant consumer control device
HID compliant system controller
HID compliant vendor-defined device
USB input device

these are only things there

Have you tried to press a key on the laptop to see if it still works? I mean since it went crazy, maybe Win10 never installed drivers for it. I apologies for an obvious question lol.

 

[lonelywizard]

yeah a little too obvious :S

if it didnt update the drivers i wouldnt be here in the first place,sadly it installed my keyboard drivers again and now my keyboard keeps spamming nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

If you can't find the the drivers and disable it that way you can always open it up and physically sever the connection. Though i don't know about lugging around a keyboard, and mouse with your laptop wherever you go. Have you tried getting in contact with tech support maybe it's under warranty.

I'm fine with lugging around a keyboard and mouse...Thats how i've been using it for 1 year...

And i don't want to physically sever it,i watched some videos and it seem way too complicated and i dont want to do something wrong and kill my computer real this time...It was easy to do in Windows 7 so i still want to believe there is an easy way in windows 10 but i'm too dumb to find it out

Haha sorry about that.

Similar to device manager, it might list the keyboard. I know you'd prefer Win10 to list it properly but it could be a bug.

Anyways,solved it guys ty for the help and fast replies...I will drop the solution in case anyone comes across with the same problem...

1-The problem was Windows10 not showing my internal keyboard
Solution:Try this; http://download.cnet.com/DevManView/3000-2094_4-1097331...

2-Now i can see keyboards,but cant disable or uninstall because windows 10 instantly reinstalls that driver...

Go to Start–>Search type in gpedit.msc
Click the file to open the Local Group Policy Editor and show Windows who is in control!! You want to go here: Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->System->Device Installation. Click on the subfolder Device Installation on the left and on the right side you will see the possible restrictions.
Right Click on Prevent Installation of Devices not described by other policy settings and edit this option, set it on ENABLED.
Reboot Windows and enjoy its inability to pollute your system with its standard driver, open gpedit.msc again and revert the change so you will be able to install your driver.

Could also be automatic device driver install as well, even if you uninstall do you still need to keep uninstalling?
