Thank you Sarah, but this machine is a desktop.  Sorry I failed to mention that.  As such, there is no FN key.

I don't know what kind of system you have, but check to see your fn keys are deactivated.  Consult your favorite search engine as there are a million ways to do things on every different laptop.

Good luck.

Subject: [nvda] time and date key (NVDA plus F12)

For some reason, my time and date key isn't working.


I'm using windows 10 and NVDA 21.3.3.  When I first boot up, the command
F12 tells me the system volume.  After it's been up awhile, it stays silent.  I did the NVDA fix thing but that didn't help.  At first, it doesn't want to change review modes; but that comes back after a bit. This is all after a system restore, if that matters


Any ideas anyone?  Thanks.
