    Function Key F2


    My F2 key is supposed to be for decreasing the volume F3 increases it. However, NOW I have to hit the F2 in combination with the Fn key to lower the volume - which is a pain in the neck. What happened to change it, and how do I change it back? I have Windows 11. I must have accidently done something that toggled the Function keys. Any help would be great!

    :)
