∙ 12y agoThe 'F' keys: F1-F12 can be used as shortcut keys. Some keyboards may have images on these keys for shortcuts. This doesn't mean they are set up though.
To set up a F key as a shortcut for a program:
1) Right-click the program and select properties.
2) Select the Shortcut tab.
3) Click inside the shortcut key box.
4) Press the key on the keyboard you want to use as the shortcut.
5) It Should appear.
6) Click Apply or OK.
This only works for Windows 7. Don't know about XP etc.
