Microsoft is adding a new key to PC keyboards for the first time since 1994::Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

Put some dang standard labels on the function keys.
F1 = Help
F2 = Rename
F3 = Search
F4 = Close
F5 = Refresh
F6-F10 = Decorative
F11 = Full screen
F12 = Goto definition
I’ve never intentionally used F1 key to open help before
I actually have, in some older software F1 was basically an included digital copy of the manual and was great to have to find an obscure setting or feature.
That’s why I remapped it to toggle my notes app
F6 goes to the address bar in (many? most?) web browsers
And F7 triggers caret browsing
I always use Ctrl+L if not Ctrl+T to open a new tab.
F7 for spell check (shift F7 for thesaurus)
F8 is for “execute selected code”
Then again, F5 is for “run current script” or “compile and run program”…
