I have this Wireless keyboard which the batteries died for the first time in the year I’ve had it, just replaced and now the Bluetooth connection is lost. I can’t for the life of me figure out what the name of the keyboard even is in settings when I search for it or how to add it again. To complicate matters I can’t figure out IF/where the Bluetooth button on the physical keyboard is IF it even has one??
PLEASE HELP

What is it, is it a wireless or Bluetooth device ? If BT device You may have to allow it is discoverable.

Hello, thx for the reply. That’s a great question and honestly I don’t know. Are WiFi keyboards a thing? Maybe that’s what this is seeing as I can’t find anything resembling a Bluetooth button/logo on this keyboard. This was my mother’s new computer she gave me right before she passed last year so it was already set up and working, until these batteries died and thus lost the keyboard connection there hadn’t been any issues. I’m admittedly not THE MOST techy guy, but I’m not a total newb either. I’ve had numerous wireless keyboards and there’s always been a Bluetooth button to easily identify and set up, this has nothing. This is also the keyboard/mouse that came with the computer so you’d think it would be pair effortlessly. I’m at a loss
