Question F keys working as Fn function by default?

[MatthewJamess]

Just got a new laptop and installed windows on it... I can't change my brightness, which is a different problem, but when I went to use the F5 key to refresh a page, the Fn function triggered instead of refreshing (I'm not pressing any other keys ofc) What should I do?

Make and model of your laptop? If you laptop is made by Lenovo, you can go into BIOS and toggle the Fn and Ctrl key swap.

It's a Lenovo indeed. Can't remember the model as it was a gift tho... The problem I have is that I'm not really even pressing the Fn key, would doing that solve it? As I understand it, your proposal would only swap the bind on the keys, but functionality would stay the same...
