Keyboard No Longer Working

[tolkiennerd69]

I just built my first pc and most things were working fine. After a few weeks of use, I have run into a problem. In the middle of using it, with everything working at the beginning, my keyboard completely stopped working. My mouse was working fine and my keyboard was recieving power (the RGB was on) but the keyboard was not listed under "Input" in settings. I tried another keyboard which didn't work either. I then used my driver updater but it seemed like all my keyboard drivers were up to date. I then made the absurdly stupid mistake of restarting the PC. You guessed it: I can no longer sign in at all. I need help.    Edit: I also tried different USB ports

OK, I've been able to login with the option "On-screen Keyboard" and then figured out how to turn it on once the PC has actually started but not sure what to do now

I've been watching videos on updating keyboard drivers but when I go to Device Manager I have no "Keyboard" section, and therefore no drivers to update, as if whatever drivers I had before have just up and left. If it helps, my keyboard is a cheap Dierya one from Amazon and the other one I tried is the $10 Logitech K120.

Go to the Logitech website and download and install the proper driver from there.

What happened was is that Windows doesn't know that there is a keyboard and therefore has nothing TO update.

If i go there and enter all the information about my keyboard, i get this message:

I've also tried the "Check for Hardware Changes" function in device manager that so many people suggest, but nothing happened even after restarting. Most of the posts I found are from people who accidentally uninstalled their keyboard drivers, and I may have done that, but I don't think so. Maybe when going to "Update" I accidentally hit "Uninstall", but I doubt it.    Update: Using the free version of Outbyte Driver Updater, I've found that I'm missing two drivers:

HotKey Keyboard Class Filter Driver and...another one called Hotkey Class Filter Driver. I've used Outbyte succesfully before to update drivers, but now, when I try to install these, even with the manual route that normally doesn't need you to register, it tells me that my "registration key" is missing and I can't install these drivers.
