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. 

Patch 8.2.4803 introduced radical change of how keyboard input is handled in w32 gvim. It is however not clear, how your problem can be caused by it (would be otherwise reported 100x times already - and it is not). Still, may be you use some non- standard keyboard layout?

Also please double check with -U NONE that stock Ctrl+d really not working?

With best regards, Anton 

Salman

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?
