V5-571G - fn keys won't work (tried everything)

After upgrading to windows10, fn keys won't work. I have reinstalled all drivers. I have reinstalled launch manager, and can see it running in the task manager. I have also tried reverting to an older version of launch manager. Is there anything else I can do?

 

What's bothering me the most are the backlit keys. The light does turn off itself after 30ish seconds, but I want to turn it OFF! HELP ME!

    Hello,

     

    May be this version for Windows 10 64-bit:

    About the backlit function, have you tried loading the default settings in the bios setup utility.

    Thank you for your reply laurent!

     

    I installed your version of Launch Manager, and now the backlit is on all the time. it is not powering off like before. I can see it in the task manager also.

     

    I do not know the BIOS settings. Is it simple? Would yoube able to guide me through it?

     

    Thank you!

    Hello,

     

    Do the other fn keys work now?

     

    To access to the bios utility, see this topic. Once you'll be in this utlity:

    • Press [F9] to load the default settings.
    • Press [F10] to save and exit
    • Your laptop will restart automatically.

    Hi, 

    I reset to default settings. But still same issue. Is it possible to check whether the function key itself is working? Maybe everything is okay except the Fn key?
