Missing INSERT key on Spectre 360 14

[Patricio2]

I've noticed after buying it, that the HP spectre 360 14 does not have an INSERT key on the keyboard. This key is essential for working with large number of files.

Is there anything I'm missing? Is it hidden where I didn't see? Any way of solving it?

I've already tryed wit several combination of function plus other key and doesn't work

Thanks for your help

Hi@Patricio2,

We understand you need to know where is insert key on your laptop.

Don't worry I'd like to help you out.

Please try the steps recommended below.

To engage the insect key, you will need to use it in combination with fn key... so now your key combination would be
To Paste = Shift+fn+prt sc (ins)
To Copy = Ctrl+fn+prt sc (ins)

Also, you can use the onscreen keyboard as an alternate and enable the insert key.

Open On-Screen Keyboard in PC settings.

Step 1: Enter PC settings.

Step 2: Select Ease of Access in the settings.

Step 3: Choose Keyboard, and tap the switch under On-Screen Keyboard to turn it on.

I always used Ctrl+c for copy and Ctrl+v for paste.  Please see links to Windows Keyboard shortcuts

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

I've asked about the missing INSERT / SELECT key and and how eventualy replace it you answered with the shortcut to COPY and PASTE, that by the way don't work on the Spectre 360 14.

The insert key is often used to select multilpe files and is crucial for serious work and that's why the on screen keyboard is not an option when you are typing on a physical one and need the screen for the serious stuff.

Next time I buy a notebook, will not be thinking of HP as my first option.

Thank you for your time, but not for your useless answer.
