  1. Fn + W used to swap WASD and arrow keys not working


    I need to swap my WASD with arrow keys for one of my games. After looking online, I found that using "Fn + W" would swap them. Simple as that. Unfortunately, it is not working. It simply types "w" instead.I use a laptop more specifically an acer nitro 5 its an older generation im also not using an external keyboard and fn + up arrow key turns volume up and fn + windows just opens the windows meniuIs there a way to fix this and/or a working alternative I could use?

    :)

    Problems with fn+wasd keys

    I have a separate keyboard from my laptop. It is a 60% mechanical keyboard which does not have the arrows keys. Normally when I want to use arrows I just hold fn+wasd and wasd will swap to arrows temporarily. I didn't manually install any driver for the keyboard. But I just wanted to install a software to control the rgb light so I installed a driver from the official website of the brand. After installing it, the fn+wasd is not working anymore, I could only press fn+w to swap wasd to arrows keys. I have uninstall the driver on device manager and reboot the pc, factory reset the keyboard, it still don't work. Any other idea to fix because it significantly reduce my typing effectiveness.
