@Sameer8808 Did you check if the issue occurs on an external keyboard?
While you respond to that, here's what you need to do:
I recommend you attempt the below steps to identify the cause of the failure and resolve it accordingly:
- Try changing the keyboard layout/language and check if it works: Click here for steps.
- Clean the keyboard with compressed air (blow compressed air in the gaps between keys). This removes some lint and dust.
- Shut down the laptop, remove the battery and cable for a moment, press and hold the start button for 60 seconds
- Replace the battery, restart the notebook,
- if the issue persists, perform an interactive hardware test on the keyboard using the steps mentioned on this link: Click here (look under "Running Component Tests > Keyboard test").
If the test fails, you can find the part number on the HP Parts Surfer & replace the parts on the HP Parts Store.
Or write back to me for alternate solutions to getting it fixed via HP.

@Sameer8808 As inquired previously, does an alternate/external keyboard work fine? while the wifi is on? please confirm,
Also, check if it works fine on a new user account.
Keep me posted and good luck!

@Sameer8808 If the hardware tests pass and yet it doesn't work in windows, this is a software glitch/error, and I suggest you backup all your personal data onto an external storage device and reinstall windows using the steps from this link:click here for details.
