    Typing on xbox one with laptop keyboard inconsistency?


    Sometimes when I open the xbox app on my laptop, it shows a window whenever I am prompted to type on the xbox one like while typing a message or typing commands in minecraft, but other times I can't seem to open the window. I have to play around quite a
    bit to get it to working but sometimes there is no effort.

    Is there a consistent method to typing on xbox one with the xbox app?

    :)

    No USB Keyboard, erm... That's kinda a first, because like, everyone has a USB keyboard nowadays regardless of owning a laptop or not.

    Using a USB keyboard on Xbox has a huge advantage which is typing text, makes it a whole lot faster (apps/msg).

    Cant see virtual keyboard on Xbox App

    Hi,

    For a while now, when promoted to type in something on my Xbox One, the Xbox App no longer displays the keyboard type box on my Windows 10 laptop. I checked the 'show keyboard when typing on my console' option and that's switched on.

    The only thing that's changed on my network recently is a firmware upgrade for my router. Are there any ports I need to open on my router in order to get the keyboard to display within the app on my laptop? It was working fine before.

    Thanks.

    Inconsistent keyboard inputs

    Hello Jason Bonarius,

    Welcome to Xbox Forums. We appreciate for sharing your concern with us and we hope that you are doing well today other than this account issue.

    We are sorry to hear that. It sounds like you are experiencing an issue with your keyboard input. As per description, the stroke yolk increment is too high.

    Let us check on this together and sort this out to assist your concern. However, before we proceed, we would like to ask few questions about it.



    1. What is the current version and edition of Windows Installed? (Search for WINVER in Windows search to see this)
    2. Was this working well before?
    3. When did the problem start?
    4. Recent activity or changes made before the problem appeared?

    These above questions would help us provide the necessary information. Once we have gathered all the information, we will formulate the viable solution to help you with your case.

    For the meantime, you may want to try running the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter on your Windows 10/11 computer to solve it.

    To run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter on Windows 10, you can follow these steps:

    1. Press Windows + R to open Windows Run dialog.
    2. Type msdt.exe -id DeviceDiagnostic in Run dialog and press Enter to open Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.
    3. Click Next to run Hardware and Devices troubleshooter.
    4. It will automatically detect problems with your computer hardware and devices.
    5. You can decide to fix the problems or not by yourself.

    If that doesn’t work, you can try increasing your ten key speed and accuracy by doing a data entry test and trying to improve your keystrokes per hour.

    Data entry is the process of entering data or information into a computer or an electronic device. It can be done manually or automatically by using input devices such as a keyboard, mouse, scanner, disk, or voice. Data entry is used for organization and management purposes or for planned computer-based analysis or processing.

    Let us know the result and we will get back to you as soon as we can. We may recommend further troubleshooting steps once we have received your answers to the above questions.



    We will be glad to follow up and help you.

    Sincerely,

    Any usb keyboard should function on the Xbox One. Are you trying to play a game using the keyboard/mouse or just for typing?
