Issues with all browser searches appear shortly after startup
Hi all,
I've tested Chrome, Firefox, and Edge on Windows 11. Yesterday the last answers worked immediately after booting but within minutes, when I searched, the results might appear but the screen would go back or to the search page—not the actual results. Sometimes pressing the forward arrow helps reach the search results, suggesting a 'back' action is triggered during search.
I ran malware scans with Malwarebytes and Bitdefender, both showing a clean system. I updated Windows and disabled all browser extensions. On another machine, searching hasn't helped much. The issue seems to persist even after uninstalling Firefox and Chrome and clearing caches. I think it might be related to Windows 11 rather than the browsers, since I have problems with three different ones. Also, direct URLs seem to work fine, but using the search box causes everything to reset. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Great suggestion! I tried uninstalling the keyboard driver, restarting, and it's functioning properly now!
had a comparable issue with my Lenovo Tile after a Windows update. The USB hidden driver became unstable, causing the keyboard to repeatedly trigger 9 or numlock. Although numlock isn’t available on this model, other hidden drivers have provided some relief so far. I’m unsure if Windows will cause further problems soon.
