    Is there a way to change HotKey assignments on a laptop keyboard ?


    Is there a way to change HotKey assignments on a laptop keyboard ? I installed Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center, but when it ran it said it could not detect any devices. If I plugged in a mouse and keyboard, used the tool to change settings, then unplugged the keyboard, would the changes still work?

    :)

    The Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center will only work with a Microsoft branded keyboard

    What hotkeys are you trying to change and are those specific to your keyboard or just Windows general hotkeys?

    SharpKeys is a free utility for re-mapping keys on your keyboard, that maybe what you need to use, but I would need more information on what keys you are trying to change or remap

    Laptop hotkeys not working [windows10]

    I used this method and get solution for wifi keys problem on windows 10 on Me HCL laptop.

    I suggest you to try installing Hotkeys driver.

    Follow these steps after install the drivers check if that helps.

    • Download the keyboard drivers and hot fix (PHotkeys) driver from the manufacturer’s website.
    • Install driver on your system
    • Go to Path of installed driver Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘Troubleshoot comparability’.
    • On the ‘Test Compatibility settings for the program pop up windows’ open and click the box ‘Test the program’ Once this is done, check if the issue persists.
