Windows 10: Dedicated Parentheses and = keys on Windows Natural 7000 keyboard do not work

I have had the same MSFT Natural 7000 desktop keyboard for several years now, and the dedicated Parentheses and = keys above the number pad have never actually worked. Interestingly, the <- key in that same group does work in Excel, replicating functionality of Ctrl-[ which takes you to the reference of a formula. I've tried toggling F Lock, but it has no effect. How do I enable these keys?

Wireless Natural Desktop 7000 support in Windows 10

I have the Wireless Natural Desktop 7000 (a truly great product), and it seems there is no Windows 10 support for the Mouse (Natural Wireless Mouse 7000). It shows up in my devices as a generic Microsoft USB Dual Receiver Wireless Mouse, and is not shown
in the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. The keyboard seems to be just fine in Windows 10, but the generic mouse driver is terrible. The scroll wheel scrolls so fast that you cannot reasonably use it. Interesting, just opening the Mouse Properties in
Control Panel and changing the Vertical Scrolling seems to fix it...for awhile, then its back to scrolling at super high speed.

1. Anyway to fix this with the standard Win10 drivers?

2. Are there any native Win10 drivers for the Natural WIreless Mouse 7000?

Keyboard Volume Keys not working while in-game

I happen to have used the Tt Challenger Pro keyboard in the past, and the volume keys worked flawlessly in every game, so it's indeed a weird problem. I would suggest the same thing sneekypeet suggested, using the keyboard software and assign this function to a hotkey, but you said that didn't work either, so yeah...
