Prior to the June 27th Windows update, my function keys worked with their primary function being the "big" image on them: (from left to right) dimmer, brighter, play/pause, mute, vol down, vol up, backlight keys, PrtScn, Home, End, PgUp, PgDn. Then IF I pushed the "Fn" key they would act as the function keys: F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9, F10, F11, F12.


SINCE the June 27th update, it has been the opposite with the primary function of those keys being the "F" function (F1-F12), and then if I hold "Ctrl" they act as the image printed on them.


THIS IS FRUSTRATING! have used my new Microsoft Surface Book 2 (13.5" i7) for 3 or 4 month and have loved just hitting "home" to go to the start of a line, or "end" to go to the end, unlike my old Surface Pro 3, where I had to hit the "Fn" key first to get any of those actions. I got really used to the direct use of those keys for those uses.


Is there something I can do to reverse this?


thanks in advance for anything you can do to bring this "normal" back to the "normal" I liked.
