    Neither F11 nor fn+F11 gives me full screen


    My browser [Firefox] provides another method to get full screen, but it's cumbersome. Can I not get full screen with one click, as I did with my old Win7 laptop?

    :)

  2. F11 does not work

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand the difficulties you are facing with the F11 key not working as it should be. In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below.



    • What is the Windows 10 version and Build installed? (Type
      winver in Windows search/Run command)
    • What is the make and model of the PC?
    • Did you try F11 along with FN key on the keyboard?
    • Was there a major change or an update on your system, prior to which you weren't facing this issue?
    • Are you trying to use F11 for full screen function or any other function?


    However, we would suggest you to perform these steps.



    Uninstall and Reinstall the drivers.

    1. Press Windows + X, select
      Device Manager
      .
    2. Expand Keyboard device.
    3. Right click on all the listed devices, then select
      Uninstall device.
    4. Check the box beside Delete the driver software for this device.
    5. Click Ok and restart the PC.
    6. Then check you still have the issue.


    We await your response.

  3. brightnes F11 F12 isn't working

    Hi,

    I would suggest you to please once look following steps. i hope you will find solution of your issue.

    Are you pressing only F11 / F12 OR are you also pressing the ''Fn'' key?

    -If you are not pressing "Fn" key, then that may be what you need to do.

    -If you are already pressing the "Fn" key also, then maybe you have the "Fn" (Function) key disabled.

    -To enable it, press Fn + Esc

    Please let me know, if that helps.

    Kind Regards:

    Top 1" of browser disappears- This is not F11 (Full Screen): At times the top of my Google Chrome will disappear and all the tabs and everything disappear and I will have a black background. It only comes back if I press F11. This is not full screen mode though. It happens sporadically. How can I fix this....
