Hi teams,
I've read a lot about this topic in HP community web page. Is there any progress about this ?
Let me put question again : How can I switch Fn+Fx multimedia keys to standard Fx on Pavilion Wireless Keyboard 600 ?
To return the keyboard during corona lockdowns is a bit painful and costly 😉 Why it is not on the box written that this keyboard is NOT DEFAULT or NOT STANDARD KEYBOARDS FOR Fx KEYS in red ink to inform buyers somehow. I think that HP should send all of us a new one (with default keys) for free if there is not any software/driver tool available for download.
One more issue - why for god's sake they've removed the Right Ctrl and they've put " \ " key there instead.
There should be tool which can at least to switch such keys to standard layout or better solution might be that a user is able to remap each key.
With regards
Matt

hi
unfortunately the only possible solutions currently are software, or hardware replacement
There is a solution, but that is to block the key, and you may break the keyboard
Unfortunately either this is not suitable or user feedback
