  2. Shortuct keys, F-Lock, and F keys not working

    I was having the same problems with my keyboard...

    Windows search " System settings"

    Then go to the bar that says Function or FN key.

    Change the setting to " standard F-1 F-12 mode.

    It will restart your computer.

    It should solve the problem, but you may have to re apply the settings multiple times and restart multiple times for the settings to kick in. I had to do it 4 times. Hope this helps! PS check other sites for solutions too. Please reply to tell me if
    it works or not.

    I don't have anything like that, and none of the windows 10 settings pages I have, has anything to do with a Function Key Mode (not that I have an Fn key, only the F-Lock on the Ergonomic 4000).

    Also, this is a desktop.. not a laptop.
