    pressing f1 opens a web browser.


    Hello Community,


    Whenever i press f1 , it opens a new tab in the chrome browser.

    I have googled for a solution, but none of those worked.

    i will explain what i tried: So i read on the internet to change the file name called HelpPane.exe and it should block everything. ( doesnt work)

    then the second thing i tried is blocking it via cmd by typing


    @echo off
    taskkill /f /im HelpPane.exe
    takeown /f %WinDir%\HelpPane.exe
    icacls %WinDir%\HelpPane.exe /deny Everyonepressing f1 opens a web browser. :(X)


    This doesnt work either...

    I was hoping someone has a solution to make it stop doing this.


    Thanks in advance!

    I'm going to try some of the things that you guys suggested now.

    Well, I figured out what was wrong. It took all of about 2min. of investigation, LOLz. I just never took the time to try to figure it out because it really didn't bother me to press F1.

    Thanks for the help guys!

    3. Type default programs in the control panel search box and open it.

    4. Click "set your default programs".
