Product: HP Elitebook 840 G6 Notebook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I've been facing an issue with the Flight Mode. While I'm using the laptop (ie. while typing something in word or outlook etc) laptop automatically switches to Flight Mode. I'm not pressing any shortcut key (and not sure which is the shortcut key for flight mode but I read somewhere in forums that it's fn + F12). 


This happens when I'm not even using the fn key. I suspect maybe my palm is touching the touch-pad while I type but not sure. You can always go switch it back off from control panel but I'm using online systems and disconnecting from it leads losing of all unsaved work so this started to get annoying plus it sometimes can't connect back to the network (it connects but says there is no internet, you need to disconnect, wait , connect again..)

 

Briefly 2 questions here:

1- is there a shortcut  touch-pad gesture / keyboard shortcut that triggers "Flight Mode"?

2- is there a way to just completely get rid of this "Flight Mode"? 

 

thanks in advance, Best Regards.
