1.) A real restart of the Windows PC!
Quite often, many Windows users use the correct reboot, firmly believing that turning them off and then on again has the same effect. This is not quite true under Window.
Because only when restarting the Windows Calculator is completely shut down and the memory is deleted. This is especially so when in Windows, or the hybrid standby , or better known as retirement, enabled.

The hard solution only in an emergency!
If your tablet has an emergency stop button, or power button on the side, press and hold the power button for 4-10 seconds, then the tablet will be forced off, working on laptops, Wintows tablets, and laptops.
If it does not work, you need to pull the battery, if possible. If the battery is almost blocked, wait until the battery is empty, but that may take some time.
2.) Check system for damaged files!
If it worked with the connection of the external keyboard, you can check the system files.
Please start the command prompt (as admin) , for example by keyboard shortcut Windows-X
and enter the command sfc /scannow (... see Image-1 Point 1 to 3)

This works only as long as no cleanup of the hard disk was done:
But you can also take the opportunity, if the personal data are safe, eg MS oneDrive
