Hello,

Spin 5 laptop.  Model SP513-52N-55LV , Windows 10
The F3/F4 buttons are the screen dim / increase brightness keys.  They are not working to dim/brighten screen any longer.  They keys respond, as when i use them as "Fn" keys, they work.  They also light up the keyboard when each one is pressed.  I can change the brightness manually in windows, but it's a hassle compared to using the physical buttons.

Any fix for this?  Was working fine for 3 years and not sure what happened this past week. 

thanks in advance for any suggestions!

    Likely Microsoft did an update... Also likely they'll roll out a fix fairly soon as well. That's how it typically works. :)

    Thank you billsey, that makes sense.  I did an upgrade the past week (or so).  As it was working prior to that.  

    Cheers and appreciated!
