On screen display when using function keys (on screen volume meter)

[thisguyhere]

Hi, the little display that shows the volume level when changing the volume using function keys (fn+f6/f7) is gone.

Found this from 12 years ago but does not seem to apply anymore:

How do I get on the on-screen info back when using the function keys?

Thanks.

Hi @thisguyhere,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd like to help!

Since the issue is only on volume function keys, I suggest you follow the below steps:

Go to this link to identify your computer, and then look for the sound drivers, update them, and then look for keyboard drivers.

Click Driver-Keyboard, Mouse, and Input Devices, and then select the HP Wireless Button Driver or HP Hotkey Support driver, depending on your operating system and notebook model.

Download and install the driver.

The function keys should now work.

If they don't, please create a new user account and check if that helps.
