Issue
Possible solutions
1
If the affected key is volume or brightness, check to make
sure you are not at the upper or lower limit for that setting.
2
If the backward or forward buttons do not work, check that
the same icons in a web browser are not grayed out. For
example, if the back button on a web page is grayed, this is
because the browser is not aware of a page to move
backward to.
3
Restart the Chrome OS by holding down the power button
until the device turns off, and then turn it back on again.
4
Try using the keys in the Guest account.
5
If users experience hotkey issues with the account that is not
the owner (primary) account, delete the user account and re-
create it.
6
If none of the above steps work, try to Reset or Recover the
Chomebook.
