Killing F Lock
I’ve got one of those fancy new wireless Microsoft keyboards with loads of pointless buttons on it that you never use. The most annoying thing about it is that they’ve decided to remap all the function keys (F1-F12) and make them do pointless things, one that always gets me is F2 which is ‘undo’ now instead of ‘rename’…grrr! And F7 is ‘reply’ now instead of ’spell check’ like its always been, which has now mysteriously moved to F10….why??? All this wouldn’t be so bad if it didn’t start by default every time you reboot, so you have to press the stoopid ‘F Lock’ key every day just to turn the ‘feature’ off and use the ‘proper’ F keys.
Just found this however, jolly handy indead…. Killing F Lock (i.e. restoring the function keys on Microsoft keyboards) (Udolpho)
