Re: Control keys not working

Steven,

They work everywhere else. Once again, they were working fine in GVim 8.2. Also, I've tried it on two different computers now.  In fact, I just opened up an old GVim 8.1 I had lying around while typing this email message and they worked just fine.

I wonder if this is a hardware problem.

Do control keys still work normally in other programs? For example, when
you make a change to a document in Word or Outlook and then press
Ctrl+Z, is the change reverted, or do you see a Z inserted the document?
