    I'm not sure if I'm correct, but I think that may be a little unnecessary. From my understanding, it seems that the user simply accidentally turned on Function Lock. The fix is to turn it off, correct?

    Hello, I believe this is a relatively simple fix. You may have a key on your computer called "fn" which serves as the "Function Lock" key. Press it once and all of the F1-F12 keys will be set to their respective alternate functions (F3 in Minecraft, etc.). Press it again and all of the F1-F12 keys will be set to their standard functions (volume up, volume down, play/pause, etc.)

    EDIT: Some computers have a separate FN Lock key on the top left, possibly where the ESC key is. If this is the case, hold the FN key while pressing ESC to toggle the lock. The regular FN key is next to the Start button.
