On-Screen Keyboard Keeps Popping Up
On-screen keyboard issues are likely related to Windows settings. When you’re having trouble with the on-screen keyboard popping up on every screen without prompting it to, there are two common reasons.

1. How to get out of tablet mode:
It’s possible your computer is in tablet mode, which would cause the keyboard to pop up any time an input is selected.
Go to Start > Settings > System > Tablet Mode and make sure the setting for “When I Sign In” is set to Desktop. Reboot the computer once you’re done and it should open into desktop mode instead of tablet mode. You will also want to make your other settings match what is shown in this picture:
