The original poster, AmandaC1979, reported that a Windows update caused her laptop to be unable to type letters, preventing her from signing in. She couldn't use the on-screen keyboard initially and sought help. She later discovered that switching the sign-in option from "PIN" back to "Microsoft Sign-in" resolved the issue, and she confirmed everything was now working fine.

My Laptop updated windows last night and since then, I cannot type any letters. Numbers and everything else work fine. Since the on-screen keyboard won’t even work I can’t sign in to windows to try and see what the issue is. Anyone else having this problem? Can someone smarter than I am help me figure out how to get into the system and check to see if there’s a fix for this?

Well, I hit the “sign in options” button and sure enough, somehow after the update my option had changed to “pin” instead of the “microsoft Sign in” option that I had always used. All good now!
