Laptop Fn Key Uses: There are many buttons on the laptop keyboard, whose use people do not know. People are also less aware of the keys from F1 to F12 at the top. Apart from this, there is another button in the lower left part of the laptop keyboard, whose name is 'Fn'. The full name of this key is Function. This key is used for different functions. But 99% of the people do not know what this button is for. But this is a multitasking key, which can do many things. Some people just press this button, and there is no change on the laptop. Why is that? Let's know more about this key and all its functions.
Used for multimedia and display control
If you want to increase or decrease the brightness of the screen, then use the Fn + F5/F6 button. This can reduce or increase the brightness of the screen. You can use the Fn + F1/F2/F3 keys to increase or decrease the volume or to directly mute. If you want to switch between the monitor and the projector, then press Fn + F4. Keep in mind, this key is useful only when it is used with other buttons.
Control keyboard and touchpad
Use Fn + Spacebar to control the brightness of the keyboard backlight. Use the same to turn the touchpad on or off. The key is also used to activate sleep mode, hibernation, or power saving mode. You can turn Wi-Fi or Bluetooth on or off with Fn + F9.
Brand features are launched.
In some laptops, the Fn button is used for Brand-Specified Features. It is used to launch gaming mode, fan speed control, or any software.
Nothing will happen if you just press it.
Often, people press the Fn button alone, but there is no benefit from it. Pressing the Fn button alone usually does not work. It always works with the sporting keys. If you want, you can enable or disable it by pressing Fn + ESC. If you do not want to use this button, disable it, and if you want to use it, enable it.
