Windows 10: Fn key not working on Microsoft Ergonimic 4000 keyboard

Hi, I just got the keyborad Microsoft Ergonomic 4000 at work.


After installing the last microsoft keyboard and mouse software, and play a little bit with it i got this problem:


- all work correctly but the FN key doesn´t. When I use it to get the F1-F12 functions, it simply open a windows, the same if i press I would press the right button of the mouse. this is quite frustrating as need to use F-keys quite often for jobs.


Have you ever heard of this problems? there is a way to reset the keyboard to original setting? maybe when downloaded the software something happened.


Thanks

New laptop FN keys not working [Solved]

Exactly what I was used to do, pressing the FN key with an F key but that didn't work....
If I press the FN key I get f1 f2 f3 and so on.

It was just the other way around, but I figured it out now.*Smile
