Toshiba Function Key

Most branded laptops come equipped with some software applications that are specific to the manufacturer and designed to work only on supported units. This is the case with Toshiba notebooks as well and there are many models that have some shortcut combinations that you will not find on other systems.

Managing and configuring such hotkeys can only be made through software applications that are especially designed for this purpose. One of them is Toshiba Function Key, a dedicated program that will make it possible for you to take care of on-screen notifications that occur when certain key combinations are pressed.

The 'Fn' key on Toshiba laptops, when associated with another one, will control power plans, brightness, sound volume, wireless adapter, stand-by or hibernation, the touchpad, the cursor and numeric overlays, for example.

Thanks to a really simple interface, the utility provides quick access to all its features. With the help of the Toshiba Function Key application you will be able to see the current status of one function or another in the first column and that of the notifications in the second column displayed in the main window.

By simply switching a button, you can easily activate or deactivate these 'Toast' notices that appear onto the notebook's screen when the correct hotkey is used. Reverting this change is also possible just as easily, so you can have the notifications displayed again at the expense of one click.

Overall, given it's great ease of use, Toshiba Function Key is a good tool to have at hand in case you are either bothered by those pop-ups or want to enable them if they have been suspended for some reason. Also, you should note that the supported shortcuts depend exclusively on the specific Toshiba notebook model you own and run this tool on.
