Function Keys

[gionets]

Hi, my name is Stewart. I have AutoCAD LT 2016 installed on my laptop with Windows 10.. I cannot get the function keys from 1-12 to work or function in AutoCAD. There must be a way to assign the keys away from window functions while in AutoCAD, however I have not been able to find the solution. Please can someone help?

Your laptop owns the F-keys: you need to turn off those settings in the computer BIOS. Then WIn10 can take over, which gives AutoCAD a chance to do it's thing with them.

Also ensure SP1 for LT2016 is installed when you get a chance to smooth out any other problems with Win10.
