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.
