Default Lower case D key toggles winDows

Please responD if anyone else is having this problem. Whenever I am in IE or
WinDows Explorer, if I type a lower case D, the Desktop toggles to another
active winDow. This only happens if I'm running IE or WinDows Explorer. It
seems as if a shortcut key has been set up but I've checkeD anD this is not
the case.

WinKey+D will open Desktop so we'll assume (one of) your WinKey(s) is
sticking.

Gently pry off the WinKey(s), clean the gunk out from under the key(s) and
on the keyboard, then gently replace the key.

Or replace your keyboard.

Did you know it's entirely safe to wash your keyboard in your dishwasher? Of
course, you don't want to use the Dry cycle.

Yeah, I've done that. (Keyboards don't like orange juice.) Of course,
you want to omit the detergent.
