I just bough a game called smart moves (W10) according to the developer if you press the f9 key it will let you skip the levels. I have tried doing this with the keyboard that come with my  windows surface but it does not work I even used a usb keyboard which I use on my xbox one and still nothing.  I know my usb keyboard f9 does work on the xbox version of smart moves.

I have a windows 10 surface with windows home. It is up to date.

    Hi Goggs25,

    If you check the forums for that game, they are all reporting that keyboard shortcut no longer works on the game on a Windows device, that the developer patched the game. I assume your F9 key works in all other applications, therefore, it is not a hardware issue.

    Why would it be patch if the developer was the one that told people that you can do it also it still works on the Xbox one version of the game.

    Hi Goggs25,

    I am Dave, an Independent Advisor, I will help you with this.

    That F9 hack no longer works on the Windows Version of Smart Moves, it has been patched, that is why that is not working for you on your surface, it is not a keyboard error.
