I have a laptop attached to a wireless keyboard. When I hit F5 on my laptops keyboard it functions normally and refreshes the screen. But when I press it on my wireless keyboard it brings up on Open File window. When I press F2 similar thing happens, F2 on laptop renames a file, F2 on wireless doesnt. Not sure what it does on the latter. How do I fix this?

Thanks
Dan
 
What type of keyboard? Does it have a F Lock button? So that the F Keys operate as expected an not perform an alternate function.
 
Holy crap that was it! I was about to tell you I dont know what an F Lock is, then noticed it in the top right. Thanks man!
 
No problem. I only remember this due to myself having the very same issue with an old Logitech Keyboard. Glad to have solved the issue and allow you to enjoy wireless computing. :D
