Welcome to the HP Forums 🙂 I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience on the HP forum, you could also visit our HP Forums Guide for First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I see from your post that you need assistance related to keyboard on your HP Pavilion notebook. Don't worry I'll be glad to help you.
To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:
What is the product number of the notebook? Use this link to find it: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03754824 (Ensure you do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc...).
If you want to know how to type the dash key on your notebook it's the key before the (+ 😃 on your regular keyboard.
The best way to identify the dash key is (-), Hyphen Press the Shift key + (_)
For the keyboard shortcuts, please go through this support document - HP PCs - Keyboard Shortcuts, Hotkeys, and Special Keys (Windows)
Hope this answers your question.
Good luck and keep me posted about the developments. If this helps, please mark this as “Accepted Solution” as it will help several others with the same issue and give the post a Kudos for my efforts to help. Thank you and have a great week ahead. 🙂
