Didn’t they shove branded fucking Copilot keys down laptop OEMs and consumers’ throats? Sounds like a lot of momentum to have to pivot away from. Momentum that literally every able-brained individual on the planet was pushing back on. Eat shit and die Microslop.
Those aren’t even real keys. Pressing it sends a hardcoded hotkey combination of some modifier keys and F12 and then immediately releases them. Not only is the key worthless, you can’t even revert it back to being usable as right control.
So I assume, at least on Linux, you could bind it to do something else? You just couldn’t also use the win (meta) or shift modifiers with it. Most keyboards don’t have an F23, so it’s not like it’s conflicting with that. Still stupid though.
Yeah they did. Seeing it on modern laptops fills me with even more hate than I already had.
Also had to setup a new Lenovo laptop recently and even something as simple as a Wifi driver refused to work on Win 10, had to install 11 for it to work lmao. Oh and the power buttons are often in the wrong fucking place, on the side of the laptop, like on phones. It’s insane

It’s Win + Shift + F23

Thanks for the correction!

Well at least it’s not a regular keyboard key in the top right of the Numpad like on my work Dell, I already shut down my computer twice by accident:
It has a Copilot key of course, but I’m mostly using it docked with an external keyboard by now
I’ve seen the power button not even in the corner. I think it was an HP omen that had the power button where your calculator button is
