Each key in modern keyboards is assigned multiple functions.
Users can use multiple functionalities of each key using Alt, Shift and Ctrl keys.
There is one more key, the Fn lock key, which enhances the keyboard functionality further.
Usually the Fn key is used with the F1 to F12 keys for multiple functions.
This functionality can be enabled by pressing the Fn key and then the required function key.
Holding down the Fn key while using the secondary function keys can be a problem.
It is like holding down the shift key while writing complete pages in capital letters.
Let us show you how its done.
Therefore, I have set the BIOS prefs to use the secondary function by default.
Each time I press only the End button, it takes a screenshot of my display.
Navigate to the following in BIOS:
Now opt for default function key behavior.
Of course, these tweaks can be changed at any time by returning to BIOS.
Usually, it is theEscapekey which is the function lock button.
To trigger the Fn lock, simultaneously press theFnkey and theFn Lockkey.
Each time you perform the key combination mentioned above, it will change the Fn default configs.
When you wish to write in normal alphabets again, simply press theFn + Fn lockkeys again simultaneously.
Nonetheless, not every laptop supports this function at the moment.
Hence, you will need to check whether your keyboard has the Fn Lock key or not.
