Arrow keys not pressing

Post by soup » 10 May 2021, 17:33

I just wanted to make a simple hotkey so I could fill in a spreadsheet faster...
I've been trying for an hour now, just wanted to bind "ctrl+v right-arrow-press" to something, but for whatever reason the right arrow press won't work. I've tried pressing it on its own, pressing down on it and letting go after some time, pressing down and never letting go, whether in excel, Google or notepad there's just no right arrow action to be seen
How do you press the right arrow with this thing? Is there anything that might stop just "Send, Right" from working (like scroll lock maybe)?
