How can I disable the function of unique keys; FN?

I have a new compaq presario CQ56 laptop with Win 7, and the volume control function keys, reading, etc. when they are pushed to him only (without the need to push the Fn key at the same time).  The problem is that I use these keys only to other purposes more how to adjust the volume, etc.  For example, in MS Publisher, I Zoom in and out to 100% by pressing F9.  However, as it is now I have to press Fn and F9 for this.

How can I change this back to the 'old' where you need Fn most key to do all what indicates the icon on the function key?  As the volume, check the battery, brightness, etc.

I searched on help for Win 7 without success.

Hello Janet,.

I don't think its possible. However, you can ask HP if they can help you the same configuration in a specific way that is adapted to your condition.

    Hello kayjay76, this looks like a problem caused by some sort of adware on your pc. Please go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.). also, go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software you have in place and various other tools such as the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

  • How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config

    How can I disable the newtab most used feature display sites. I want the new tab to open the page displayed in the newtab:url in the topic: function config

    41 of Firefox is no longer uses the browser.newtab.url setting in about: config because he was constantly attacked by malware. From 41 of Firefox, you need an add-on to change the new tab page.

    Here are a few options (I'm learning more all the time):

    • If you are already using the extension classic restaurateur theme: There is an option somewhere (!) in his dialogues of the parameters to select another page in the new tab.

    Setting up substitute again tab

    After installing this extension, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Success?

    Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

  • How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play?

    How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play? I tried to disable the driver, and nothing works.

    Hello

    Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
    Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad entered)
    and some come with a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    ==========================================

    If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
    Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
    on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    I hope this helps.

  • How can I disable the JavaScript debugger in my PDF documents?

    Hello

    I do everything I can to disable the debugger JavaScript in my documents created using Adobe Acrobat. Under Acrobat Edit > Preferences, I deselect (uncheck) 'Enable JavaScript debugger after restart Acrobat', 'Activate interactive console' and 'see the console on errors and messages.

    Yet, when I go to advanced > Document processing > JavaScript Debugger, it starts the debugger just!  How can I stop the debugger to start?  Even after the security application strict password to the document where hardly anything other than open it is allowed, Acrobat still allows me to perform advanced options > Document processing > JavaScript debugger and start the debugger.

    I am operating under the assumption that the debugger can allow people to discover my JavaScript source somehow, so I want to keep the debugger cannot be used.  Even if they can't read my source, I don't see any upside to the debugger opens.  How can I disable the debugger to be selectable from the advanced options > processing of the Document?

    Thank you.  I thought it would be a frequently asked question, but I spent a few hours searching without success.

    Dave

    P.S. I use Acrobat 9.1.  I read somewhere that Acrobat X has more ability to disable the debugger.  I saw a mention of "XFA" in this respect, whatever it is.  In any case, if Acrobat X has additional abilities to disable the debugger, let me know.

    As George says there is no way to prevent someone to extract the scripts in a file, if they really want (even if the security is applied to the PDF document, it takes a more circuitous route to get there), but a lot of people will use obfuscation tools to make it a more painful process for the novice. Acrobat does not support encrypted as a result of Creative Suite (JSX - BIN) files, but there are many tools out there that basically take your script, turn it into a complex of references at random clutter and hex strings, then run using a complex function of-jumbler. It is hackable, of course, but unless your code is worth a fortune, it makes it too much like hard work for most of the pirates to bother.

    I the MAGNIFICENT Add on 1 - ClickWeather and now has a message on the 'signature' module Now... I DON'T want to use a product of INFERIOR quality such as suggested in the name of the add - on.

    I would use the add-on that I already have on my Firefox, 1-ClickWeather. So, how can I disable the 'signature' on an individual add-on module? It is said to "Act with caution", but it does not show Me the details of my time. I reinstalled the add-on, but it does not yet record my position.

    Yes, I KNOW it is no longer supported, but has always worked until this past Saturday. It was abandoned several years ago but was kept alive by a single poster whose comments have disappeared. I have the add-on on my computer. I continued to update the continuous Firefox updates.

    Ignore the link of the player Shockwave that probably, you mustn't he compared to Flash player because it is barely used nowadays.

    FredMcD, you really need correct/update your clipboard for that.

    The downloadable Shockwave player version (not flashing) is 12.1.3.153 and not 15.0.0.152 as you can be confusing which version of the flashplayer reached before.

    Flash player is 15.0.0.189 and not 14.0.0.179 as you can see at https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

    Flash player is used for good Flash videos like Youtube and Flash games in Shockwave player is little used compared to Flash, for things such as games and online learning tools.

    And please, don't say "I asked. It's the way it is displayed on the site"as you said last time in https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1026518 , because who says little about why you're wrong ad versions and calling Shockwave player, Shockwave Flash.
