    If the Windows + V key combination is not working on your ASUS VivoBook, it may be due to the WindowsV filter blocking this shortcut. Here are steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue:

    1. Check WindowsV Settings: Ensure that the Windows logo key + V combination is not blocked. You may need to adjust settings related to the Windows Embedded Keyboard Filter Service if applicable.
    2. Update Drivers: Make sure your keyboard drivers are up to date. You can do this by going to Device Manager, finding your keyboard, right-clicking, and selecting "Update driver."
    3. Check Keyboard Functionality: Test if other keyboard shortcuts work to rule out a hardware issue. If other shortcuts are also not functioning, it may indicate a problem with the keyboard itself.
    4. Run Windows Troubleshooter: Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot, and run the keyboard troubleshooter to identify and fix any issues.
    5. Check for Windows Updates: Ensure your system is up to date by checking for Windows updates in Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider checking the ASUS support site for any specific updates or fixes related to your model.
