HP Envy Laptop 15-ep0xxx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

On my newly bought laptop (HP Envy 15) the Insert key is missing. Tried multiple suggested solutions, like 'Fn+E', 'Fn+Delete', 'Fn+PrtSc', etc, but no one works for me.

Could you please advise, is there any way to remap any 'FN+Key' combination (i.e., 'Fn+Del') to serve me consistently as an insert key?
Ideally, I would like to remap 'HP Command Center' key, since I don't need it (located on f12 place).

Thank you, Promethee for your response. Using the link you provided, I installed PowerToys. It did the job along with providing some useful features 🙂 It is a shame there is no place on HP keyboard for Insert, although I was able to remap a rarely used "Next track" key.
