    My question is twofold.

    Has anyone else noticed issues with the accessibility of ribbon access keys?

    And are there any troubleshooting methods I am not aware of to resolve this?

    I have tried disabling TeamViewer, I have also updated to the latest PBI verison.

    I am stuck in the second screenshot I provided. Say I initiate the ribbon access keys by pressing ALT. The first level of keys appear that you can naviagate the upper options of the ribbon with ( Home, Insert, etc ). These can be selected no problem, so when I click 'H' to travel to the Home options in the ribbon, I am unable to select any of those options, 'DG' for get data, etc.

      Hi Keegan_Patton,  I need you to test something for me.    

      Within Power BI Desktop visit Options and Settings> Options > Preview Features, and

      Uncheck On-Object interaction.  Restart Power BI Desktop, and see if the

      ALT Keys are working again.  I see no mention of this as a Bug or open issue

      at this time.

        Hello foodd , thank you for your response and continued help here. Below are the preview features I have currently active. On-Object Interaction is not currently selected in my Desktop.
