    Use Laptop F-key shortcuts on the On-Screen Keyboard


    is it possible? I'm looking for any article to see if I could use my Lenovo F key shortcuts such as volume or brightness or basically anything you can do with the Action Center Just without using the action center. I'm about to go check out my Lenovo device website and ask there but I thought Windows would have a faster answer. Thank you all! Have a wonderful day.

    :)

  3. Windows 10 Laptop Keyboard Keys Acting Strange

    Hi,

    I realize that you are facing issues with the keyboard on your PC. I will try to help you with this issue.

    Suggest you to plug in an external keyboard to the laptop to check if that helps.

    Further you may also use the onscreen keyboard to check if that helps.

    Follow these steps to launch the On-screen keyboard:


    • Press Windows key + R to get the run window.

    • Type “osk” and hit enter to launch the On-screen keyboard and check if this helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.
