Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Since the update i have problems with keys ..... a lot has changed functionality like question mark produces =, backslash > ....... Almost all except . and ,

I checked all window keyboard settings, ran virus and malware scanners.

 

Anyone with the same problems  .. = , this is my current question mark.

 

I am going to re install an older Windows boot partition now.

Looks like my question mark still works ok :) 

 

I did have to remap my trim controls though and so far that the only key related issue I have come across  so far...only given it a short test.

Yes,

 

buttons of my VPV MT-50 are no longer working. Only the axis are ok.

I have the same hardware and mine did the same. I unplugged the USB and reinstalled, it was OK after that.

OK thanks, meanwhile i mailed support, and reinstalled yesterdays boot partition backup, lucky me, made just before the download..

All works normal again .... But i just wonder, but i won't post any political statements here LoL.

I suspect it was a keylogger malware thing in my case, had that before once.

So the title of this thread is total nonsense?  This update is not "infected with malware" and your technical problem is to do with your own pc.

 

Do you think you should edit the title of this thread?

Maybe, but i couldn't find what was wrong, and the common repair tricks usually do. I only ran the update and noticed the behavior after that, did not download or installed anything else. To ease your mind: I'll add fixed to the title, but IMO through out the years there was occasionally an issue with various renown software houses and updates, f.i  examples:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-04/the-big-hack-the-software-side-of-china-s-supply-chain-attack

 

BTW there was a question mark in the title, and maybe i was a little quick on the draw, as no one else seems to have experienced the same so far ...

C'mon, just edit the title already. It's crazy at it is that you thought there may have been malware in the download.

Thought i did that ...

I worked but it happened again today.

Will I have to unplug/plug every time now? Something is not right.
