I know that to access "Spelling and Grammar" I have to click on Review then ABC but hitting the F7 key should do the same thing however, when doing so I get a prompt simply telling me what % the volume is currently set at. Any suggestions as to why this is so; running W11
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
It's a common feature of many keyboards.
You can "lock" the Fn key so that you only need to press F7 instead of Fn+F7. On most keyboards, you can press Fn+Esc to do that.
This is not a Windows setting but a BIOS setting from the computer manufacturer. They change the function of the function keys to match the little pictures they put on the keys instead of following the settings in programs.
There is usually a way to have it so the Fn key gives you those custom functions instead of having to use the Fn key with the keys set in programs. Contact the manufacturer. https://www.addbalance.com/word/functionkeys.htm
