Hello everyone i have the hp omen 17 laptop and i am trying to bind some macros with the omen command center.The macros i am trying to set is vollume up vollume down and play/pause.For some reason i go in the macro recorder i record the macros and they dont work.On top of that if i close the command center app and open it again the recorded macro changes the pressed button from vollumeup to B.So is this a bug that can or might be fixxed with the software or i should try third party tools to bind the macros the way i want?

Thank you for the respnose.Support assistant didnt have any bios updates i searched manualy and found the bios update.I dont have a blank usb flash drive at the moment so i skiped the bios update.I used autohotkey with a script i found to bind the media keys to random keyboard combinations and then binded them to the macro keys with omen command center that seemed easyer soloution at the moment than going to a bios update.So that kinda solved my problem.
