    Special Function Keys not working

    I have a Toshiba Satellite S55t-A5277 laptop. I've been having several issues with programs and drivers lately that led to my computer re-installing Windows 10 twice in the last month (not sure if that was even resolved honestly). The top row of function
    keys now aren't working, despite my best efforts to fix it. (Brightness keys, Volume up and down keys, etc.)

    The special function keys are now only working as regular F1-F12 keys, despite checking my BIOS and resetting it to "Special Function Keys" several times. I've also tried choosing regular F1-F12 keys thinking that just might be the problem but that hasn't worked
    either. I can't access my special function keys without pressing and holding the "FN" key despite not having needed to do that before. Are there any ways to fix this?

    Special function keys

    Hi,

    Pressing Fn key will allow you to use Function. What is not working and what kind of changes did you made in BIOS?

    Keep us posted

    Best regards,
