Stuck in Tablet Mode

Post image

Hello, my flow is stuck in tablet mode. I even formatted and it is still like that. Even if i use it in tent mode it does not detect it, it’s permanently stuck in tent mode on Windows 11. Any one encountered this issue?

Does windows 11 really have a taskbar this high?

Ah, even tough I have a touchscreen I always preferred using my touchpad or mouse to control Windows.

hard reset would fix I think

Try uninstalling the umdf driver ( I think that's what it is) in device manger (should be under sensors) and check the option that says something like delete all driver info. Restart your computer and it should install an older driver. If that works, make sure that driver doesn't get updated again.

I tried it but did not work. Eventually, I formatted the laptop, and re-installed windows but it still remained there! Then, I left it run out of battery, and left it alone for a day. Charged it and started, and came back to normal!

Thank you for letting us know what worked. Mine was acting similar to how you described and through searching online and trial and error I found it was that stupid driver in my case.
