After purchasing my new PC with Windows 11, I was thrilled that the Fn-F12 keyboard shortcut allowed me to easily put the computer to sleep. However, in a surprising turn of events lately, this functionality has ceased to work without any apparent cause. This sudden change is frustrating as it now takes three mouse clicks to put the computer to sleep. I am considering using PowerTools to reassign a new shortcut, but before I proceed, I am curious if others have encountered a similar issue. Could it be a bug from a recent Windows Update causing this inconvenience?
