Windows 10: Function lock status not being displayed after windows update

When you press Fn + F12 there is an on on screen display that says "Fn Lock - On" or "Function Lock - Off". This has stopped working after windows update KB5046633 or KB5046732 not sure which one. The function lock still works but because on screen display does not come on I don't know if the function lock is on or off. Other displays like volume up/down , brightness up/down are working. The workaround I use to find out if function lock is on or off is : I press Fn + F12 then I try volume up or down F7 or F8 if the volume display pops up then I say to myself : "ahoy! function lock is on

Rotation lock key is not functioning

Since the Rotation lock is still grayed out, our next step is to uninstall/Update your display driver. To uninstall your your drivers, you can do the following:

• Press the Windows and X key on your keyboard and click on
  Device Manager.
• On the Device Manager window, click on the Display adapter drop-down.
• Right-click the driver and choose uninstall.
• Restart your computer.

If it is the same, update the said driver by following these steps:

• Go Back to the Display adapter drop down in Device Manager.
• Locate your display adapter driver, right-click and choose

We would also suggest that you go to your device manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for your device.
