I have a Think Pad at work and the keyboard is really killing me (the left Ctrl is not on the most left and it has the FN key there).

I use a lot of Ctrl + C, Ctrl + v while writing code and this FN key annoys me (I keep pressing it instead of Ctrl).

Anyway, how to make the FN key the CTRL key?

    Thinkpad BIOS typically gives you option to swap Fn/L_Ctrl...

  • I have an HP Envy and the CTRL key broke, so I need an answer to this that is not Thinkpad specific. Already googled but to no avail.
