In order to use the Fn Keys on Windows VMs with Parallels 9 you have to set them as standard function keys on Mac OS, which requires you the press the Fn key to access the special functions (brightness, playback, volume etc.).

Does Parallels 10 fix this, allowing you to use the special keys on Mac and the F keys on Windows?


parallels can't 'fix' this issue, because the Fn+FKey combination is done in the keyboard itself, before being sent to the OS.

The Fn key itself does send a key code, but the combo doesn't.
