Hi @lmwapner 

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

 

Thanks for sharing the image—those top right four keys on your HP All-in-One wireless keyboard are designed for quick-access functions. 

 

Here's what each one typically does:

🔍 Key Functions (from left to right)

🔒 Lock Key

  • Instantly locks your computer screen (same as pressing Windows + L)
  • Useful for stepping away securely without logging out

🖥️ Display Toggle Key

  • Switches between display modes (e.g., PC screen only, duplicate, extend)
  • Equivalent to Windows + P shortcut

🪟 Task View Key

  • Opens Windows Task View to show all open apps and desktops
  • Helps with multitasking and switching between virtual desktops

📄 File Explorer Key

  • Launches File Explorer directly
  • Handy for quick access to documents, downloads, and folders

These keys are part of HP’s effort to streamline everyday tasks with one-touch shortcuts.  😊
