*I DO OWN THE PRODUCT. Laptop: HP 14s-fq1035no 14" FHD: After removing my spacebar amongst other keys, it doesnt work when put back on. The physical mechanisms seem fine, and all the parts are in place. However, on the underside of the key, two tags holding the bottom metal bar are gone, but the mechanisms seem fine.
So far I have tried the following:
1.Re-inserted key several times.
2. Re-installed keyboard driver
3. Turned-off "filter buttons" / stikcy buttons
Any ideas?

The following is not exactly the same but is also useful
