okkosh / fn-key-lock Goto Github PK

yoyo thanks for great program. Just wanna ask you if u can add brightness control here too. cuz i am really annoyed about fn keys on my laptop and it wont work with mine
thanks bro

Every time I restart my computer I have to use Ctrl + Alt + L to enable the Fn key. I was wondering if this could be automated on startup so the users would not have to do anything?

Please comment or react with 👍 if you would like to see a cross-platform (Linux & Mac) version of FN Key Lock

hello dear

and
pleace add airplane mode,screen off,tochpad off/on,microphone off/on in new update.

Hey, thanks for the soft it is helpfull !
I still lack a feature, I set F11 to Home and F12 to End but I can't make it work while modifier keys are pressed (Control or Shift).

Hope it can be done.

Allow adding custom keys combo e.g. Win+Alt, #Ctrl, etc., in Fn Lock

possibly caused by directx input

The program works for me, which is great, but I'm worried about this issue reported by Windows Defender.
It says there's a trojan embedded into the program. I downloaded the exe directly from GitHub.

Doesn't work on MacBook Pro 2020 with Windows 10

Note:
the device have a mac touch bar not buttons

Potential Solutions:

• Allow the users to bind a custom hotkey based on their preferences instead of using ctrl+alt+L
• Allow app list to be stored inside the config file to customise apps (ex calculator)

Though https://github.com/okkosh/FN-key-lock/releases/tag/v1.0b release already allows a user to bind any FN key with any app but,
this will give us more flexibility

not sure if it is safe

Greetings from Germany,

I like this tool so far more than the supplied manufacturer tools for defining the F12 key, as they are usually bloated with advertisements or not working at all.

Is this considered freeware, if yes do you have something like Ko-fi for a donation?

First of all, tnx for your great software. please add other functions like increase/decrease of LCD light and also increase/decrease of the keyboard backlight.

I need to turn on wifi adapter but the physical keyboard has passed away, so my wifi is turned off by default. Running on Windows 7. Is that possible?

i wanted to use it to pause without having to pause the game let go of my mouse and then hold down fn and f6, but when i toggle fn lock on, the windows media thing pops up but doesnt start and spotify says this

Dear, it isn't working, just showing that it's toggling in the tray icon, using Lenovo E431 Windows 7 64-bit.
BTW I found your code after a long time of searching for such software because my FN key stopped working even after BIOS and drivers updates.

Hello, I'm using keyboard which has Fn button but by default acts like this:

Pressing F1-F12 will trigger media keys.
Pressing Fn + F1-F12 will trigger F1-F12 keys.

So basically Fn is locked by default and to unlock it I have to hold Fn button. Sadly Fn lock key is not present on the keyboard and it's super annoying so I tried your tool but sadly it does not solve my problem.

I run program as an administrator and it doesn't matter if I lock or unlock Fn, it always triggers media buttons.

I would love to have opposite functionality which could map media keys to F1-F12 keys.
