    Hi John ,

    Can you open the Paint app on the PC? Can you open any pics with Paint at all?

    Paint has a spell checker or what?

    You might try uninstalling and reinstalling it: Install or Uninstall Microsoft Paint (mspaint) in Windows 10

    I had to do this recently. You shouldn't lose anything in the process.

    If you have a second account on your PC, see if Paint works there. Always good to have a backup second account in for testing or in case something happens to your main account.

    Is the keyboard a laptop keyboard or what? Does it have a function key to adjust the backlight level?

    Hi,

    In a corporate environment. Sudden Keyboard / Word processor / Thesaurus / Auto corrector / printers Goofiness, are always regarded as suspicious and are seriously investigated as malware / Virus infection. And has been proven a very good practice.

    While a number of causes could have the same symptoms you're experiencing... But the way you described your problem happening. I would start with that.
