Download the drivers from the Lenovo drivers page (or search for"Lenovo slim USB Keyboard driver") Extract the driver (usually to"C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS") run"Lenovo Slim USB Keyboard.exe" in C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS\KEYBOARD\c6kyb05us17\x64. There you can tick a checkbox for using the FN keys primarily. Hope that works!

After doing that, and restarting my laptop to apply the changes, my keyboard and touchpad stopped working. Following a guide I found online, I then tried to go to Device Manager > Keyboards > Standard PS/2 Keyboard > Uninstall device, and then restarted again for the correct driver to hopefully reinstall itself. That too did not work, and ...

10. The bios swap for the function and ctrl keys is now implemented by Lenovo! If you have a newer Lenovo laptop (mine is a thinkpad x201), you can find the option to switch them under the"configure keyboard and mouse" options. (For my laptop, I access the Bios by pressing the blue"ThinkVantage" button while the computer is booting up). Share.

2-Select your manufacturers keyboard manager. Note this is a different place than just the KEYBOARD. In my control panel, it says LENOVO – KEYBOARD MANAGER. 3-Select Fn key and Ctrl key swap tab. Then verify Swap Function is turned OFF. Mine was turned ON by default, which meant the keys were reversed on my keyboard and I didn’t even know it!"
