How can I disable the shortcuts of function keys on windows 8 so I can play properly?

I want to play gmod but anything that uses the function keys is unusable. When I Press f4 to display a Help menu, I get connected devices.

Hi CatchallRat.


Thanks for posting of application on Microsoft Community.

From your description, I understand you have questions function keys on the keyboard.

You can't disable function keys because they are intended for use.

For additional questions regarding this issue I suggest you contact the developer of the game or the manufacturer of the computer.

If you have other questions about Windows 8 Please post them and we will be happy to help you.

This is VERY wrong. You can turn them off. So this help someone else who has this problem, you go to the Bios settings... Change the key priority of function... and restart. Vola!

  • How to reverse for the keyboard wedge function keys

    I am a developer and I just bought the new keyboard Wedge as I like the form factor and mobility of it. However, I find it is very painful when I'm coding as a lot of range of F5 - F12 shortcut keys. Now, I have to press the FN key, when I want to do.

    Is there a simple way to reverse the function of these keys? So pressing it by default would trigger the F key * and with the FN, he would go up the charms of windows 8?

    You can also check specific permission settings by using the permissions of the Page Info dialog Committee. While on the site, you can call this using one of these:

    • Right click and select View Page Info > permissions
    • (menu bar) Menu Tools > Page Info > permissions
    • Click the icon of padlock or globe to the left of the address of the site > additional information > permissions

    Scroll down and look for "access your location. If it is set to block and you want to enable it, you can make the change. (If necessary, uncheck the box to activate specific use default settings.)

  • Disable the shortcut of layers of Cycle?

    I have been using Photoshop for a while now with my Wacom Intuos 5 and ask If there is a way to disable the shortcut for the layers of cycling (Opt + []).

    I have my pen put in place for where the front button Opt for quick color sampling and I use the express wheel on my Intuos to change the brush size, while the painting/drawing and the layers will be turn on me frequently by accidental overlap.  I checked the shortcuts in the Edit menu and I couldn't find a way to change this.  He learned to be quite annoying to find that I've been drawing/painting on a layer, I wanted to preserve and also was hinder my workflow as a barrier more than to be a shortcut.  I would be grateful if someone had a solution to this problem, and thank you for taking the time to help!

    Well well, not inside Photoshop, but if you go to Apple System Preferences > keyboard > tab shortcuts, you can assign Opt [and] some functions in OSX will not get in the way which will be "trap" the shortcut, PS prevents using it.

  • How to temporarily disable the update insert dates?

    Hello!

    DW CC on MacOS 10.11.3 2015.1

    I use "Insert date" (see: https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/insert-dates.html) to track the most-recent-update of content pages.  The time stamp is displayed after "Page updated:"about content. "

    I just discovered a systematic error in repeated, without reusable content in 1500 + pages. Oh!

    The solution is simple and I would like to use search and replace in DW to do the job, but I want to leave all the most recent timestamps in these pages intact, that this correction does not affect content.

    My question: how to temporarily disable the DW mechanism that updates the timestamp in the markup?

    I suspect that there is a visible JS file that implements the update, and the path to success is to temporarily replace an inert version of the same name, but before you start digging for this...

    TIA

    The file you need to disable temporarily is at the following location in Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2015\configuration\Translators\Date.htm. He will be in a situation similar to Mac OS X in the Applications folder.

    If you use an earlier version of Dreamweaver on a PC running 64-bit Windows, see C:\Program Files (x 86).

    Date.htm contains two JavaScript functions: getTranslatorInfo() and translateMarkup() you need to temporarily replace with dummy functions.

    Know that you will be editing a program file. Needs administrator privileges to do this. As long as you know what you're doing, it should not cause problems, but you do at your own risk.

    If you clicked the Cancel button right after the import, then you u did import. If the REFO option is available, click on it.

    In otherwise, re - import photos from the card again and do not click Cancel. If the card has been erased, see if you can use the Time Machine backup to restore.

  • Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?

    Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?  I am running Windows 7 64 bit on a Lenovo laptop
    Thank you

    I understand that you have found some suggestions on editing the registry - they aren't so bad. If you don't want to download all of the files that allow you to disable the LOCKING of the capital LETTERS, you can create it by yourself:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type notepad , and then press enter
    2. Paste to Notepad:

      Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
      "Scancode Map" = hex: 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 02, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 3A, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00

    3. File > record under...
      • Select to Save as: all files
      • Enter the file name : disable_caps_lock.reg
      • Click Save
    4. Right-click on the created file > merge
    5. Restart your system

    In case you want to turn CAPS LOCK on again, you must remove this registry entry, so you must do the following:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type regedit and press enter
    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
    3. Right click on the Card of Scancode > delete
    4. Restart your system

    I guess that it is perhaps the only way to turn off the CAPS LOCK.

    In case you still don't want to do this, Windows 7 offers something different to disable the LOCKING of the upper CASE. You can turn the ToggleKeys, then you will hear a beep when you press CAPS LOCK. To do this follow these steps:

    1. Press Start > Control Panel > access >easy access Center > make the keyboard easier to use
    2. Check the box to enable the ToggleKeys

  • How can I disable the auto restart (following updates) for Windows 7 Home Premium (without messing around w / the register)?

    Hello.  About all of the weeks I have my upload computer files from one day to the next.  It's a 17-hour process, and I don't want the computer off or restarted during this process.  Murphy's law usually results in an update windows & restart related happening whenever I put my computer to download said.  First of all, it is deeply annoying that windows would reboot my computer without asking me (Yes, I realize he asks you, and if you are away for an extended period, he just goes ahead and does it... but really, what the $#! % is the point of asking you if she goes ahead and that anyway when you get him just enough early?)  Wow!  Incredibly retarted the Windows for this.)  But anyway, how can I disable this for Win7 Home Premium?  (As if in the first place is not quite annoying, making it virtually impossible to figure out how to turn it off is like adding insult to injury).  Please NOTE, I've seen some other forum post responses on this site that is: (1) link to an information page on the group policies for system administrators, but nowhere does really explain where and how to access these policies and change them!  (2) has a process that begins with 'gpedit.msc' running, but when I started > box to search for this file, there is no result.  (3) the hacking the registry (seriously?  Please, don't.)  SO, please tell me how to disable the auto restart, step by step, without messing with the registry, for WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to potentially re - activate cela in the future and/or switches back as my usage dictates.  And for the record, it's nut that's not a simple option toggle any, as when my computer or monitor sleeps...  Thank you!!

    Thank you.  I'll do it and change my Windows Update settings.  BUT, FYI, in an act even more incredible, the same night I posted my question here, my computer was said upload, and I was still in place at 03:00 (when Windows is set to d/l and install updates).  I went to the kitchen for a bit and returned to my computer to find a countdown - he downloaded updates and "will re-start in 7 minutes" or so and counting down... I said "AH HA!"  I caught you! "I clicked the button of REPORTER and went to bed smiling that I myself had saved wasting many hours of work.  But when I woke up the next morning... HE HAD DONE IT AGAIN!  This means that it is: (1) downloaded another "critic" (cough) update later in the evening, which seems likely because it took to do this at 03:00 and had already done so... or (2) the REPORTER button defers only during a certain period of time (maybe an hour, or even less, by the look of it) and then do it again anyway.

    This is ridiculous.  As it is not ridiculous to called 9 10 patches 'critical', so critical that an urgent restarting your computer is necessary EVEN IF HE is BUSY WORKING, the substitution of the computer user asks to postpone and reboot anyway is absolutely unacceptable.  How the manufacturers of Windows might think this makes sense, let alone was a good idea?  Reporter should make the computer restarts DO NOT until * I * say he is allowed to do.

    In this case, finish the work of 17 hours, that the computer was in the Middle has been MUCH more critical that whatever is downloaded updated.  NO doubt about it.  I know.  Apparently, my operating system is not smart enough to know.  So to take it upon himself to replace my reporter application is crazy.  And in addition, the operating system MUST be smart enough to understand this - it's really not that difficult - if the computer is a lot of work, something intense, a download that is not finished, a sort of bar of ANY progress on ANY application which is not 100% yet, etc., it should be smart enough to WAIT to reboot anyway.

    Thanks again once, change Windows Update settings so it will download updates but let me choose to install them, since this operating system is so poorly thought.
