Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂

Many notebooks have an action key mode that enables the secondary action without pressing the Fn key first. 

Are you experiencing an issue with function keys?

Could you please elaborate on the exact issue?

I use an Advent wireless keyboard with my HP Pavilion and when entering information for example on a spreadsheet,  by pressing the F6 function button I can duplicate the information on the line above saving a considerable amount of time. However I can not find a button on the HP Pavilion keyboard which does the same thing. Can you help?

Thank you for posting back. 

Let's try some alternate options and check:

Alternatively, you can also use shortcut key: Alt + H + L. When you click on the dropdown of conditional formatting, you shall receive various options. Select the first option 'Highlight Cells Rules' and the sub-option as 'Duplicate Values.

Keep me posted for further assistance.
