Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- Have you tried connecting wireless keyboard on different devices or computer?
- Did you make any changes on the settings of your PC prior to the issue?
- When was the last time it worked fine?
While you respond to that, let's try these steps:
-
Locate the USB receiver for the device, and then make sure it is connected directly into a USB port
on the computer.
NOTE: A USB hub might not provide enough power for your device to connect properly.
If you cannot locate the receiver, check the original packaging. Some HP Touch and All-in-Ones come with the USB receiver preinstalled in the computer. Or, look for a USB storage container on the device.
-
Look for and remove any battery tabs from the device. This tab prevents the device from receiving power.
-
Make sure the device has adequate power.
-
If the device uses batteries, install new batteries according to the guide in the battery compartment.
-
If the device is rechargeable, connect the charging cable to the device, and then to a power source, such as a USB-charging port on the computer or an external USB power adapter.

-

-
If the device has a power switch, confirm the switch is set to ON.
-
On your computer, test the device.
If the device still does not work as expected, go to Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Troubleshooting.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
