    Microsoft Wireless Combination Keyboard & Shortcut Keys

    Hi,

    A keyboard shortcut key or combination of keys providing quick access to a particular function within a computer program. To better assist you, we'd like to gather more information:

    • Did you get any error messages when you try those keyboard shortcuts?
    • Does this happen only to Microsoft keyboard?

    We're looking forward to your response.

    Function Key is activated randomly

    After the latest Windows update, the function key is activated on it's own in random moments.

    What I mean, is that while for instance ctrl+v is supposed to paste a block of text, while working at a random moment pressing this combination will execute FN+ctrl+V doing something completely else. This happens with many combinations, and as the FN functionality messes up stuff in my system I would like this to stop. It is even worse that this can happen at any point during working, as I have no way to expect when this will happen.

    Moreover, when I want to actually use the fn key (for instance, fn + right arrow in my system translates to the END key) I can't cause all the other time it is fully disabled!

    I have already tried to update the keyboard drivers (up to date) and uninstall all the drivers and reboot the system, but this situation keeps happening and is really frustrating.

    Any help/tips please?

    Key combinations not working

    Thanks for following up. In here, you can find the list of all the keyboard shortcuts in Windows 10. Check it out and
    see which key combinations are still working on Windows 10, and which are not.

    We also tested on our end and only the Alt + F and Alt + P are working fine, and this is on a PC that is on the Fall Creators Update. May we suggest that you update your operating system to 1709 and see if the key combinations will work.

    We'll keep an eye out to your response.
