Hello,


Are you using a USB or Bluetooth keyboard? The easiest way is to either unplug your keyboard or turn your keyboard off.


When typing are you familiar with the suggestions bar on the bottom of the display? This often holds cup, copy, paste, typing suggestions, etc. On the far right of the bar you will find a downward facing arrow. If you press and hold this arrow the on-screen keyboard will appear.
