Hi. Fn plus the left shift toggles the behaviour of the function keys on my work lap top. It is an HP but I¡¯m not sure of the model. ? ?

There could be another issue. Are you using a lap top? If the function keys are set to perform hardware functions you will have to include the FN key along with alt F4 to close programs. Many brands allow you to change this behaviour with a keystroke. On my dell inspiron for instance, holding the FN key and pressing escape will change the behaviour of the function keys. On my HP that I use for work the keystroke is FN plus the left shift key. Try this, or try plugging an external keyboard in and see if it behaves properly. This is all assuming you are using a laptop. ? Chris Judge
? ? If you can't close windows with ALT+F4 then there is a problem with Windows itself.
The IT folks (and I'm presuming your working for an entity that's supplied you with your equipment) needs to get Windows 10 up to snuff first.
