  1. How do I lock the function keys?


    Hi all, I just had a quick question. Some games I play require the press of F1-12 keys, although I always have to hold down the Fn key to make them work. Is there any way to lock the F1-12 keys so I don't have to press that Fn button? I commonly see people refer to Fn+Esc, but that doesn't seem to work for me. For reference, I'm on a Lenovo Ideapad L340.

    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
      Update Driver Software
      .

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

    For further queries, feel free to post back.

    Functions keys work as intended


    Hi dangnad2.

    Found this. Would suggest Lock mode Enabled/Secondary needs to be enable or checked.
