FN button stays on permanently, what to do?

Spelling gets bad, has little time and has to ask this question as soon as possible.

I personally use a lenovo think pad i5 vpro. As usual, I have an FN key on this laptop. Normally I press first the FN-key and then one of the F-keys (F1-F12) to perform different actions (louder / quieter, change tabs etc.).

Now I have the problem that the FN button is no longer lit and no longer needs to be pressed to perform an action… Stupid for me.

Ergo, the FN key is permanently active.

But I do not want that. I looked around and found only a few key combinations

Ctrl + Shift + Num.

Fn + Num.
Num.

Fn + F11.
Num + F11.

But they do not work. Can someone maybe help me how I can activate the FN key again or set so that I have to press this again first?

Often you can set this in the BIOS or with one of the installed drivers for your notebook

In the bios, I've already looked but the only real possibility that I have is the FN key and ctrl swap… Helps in my case but not so much… What do you mean with: "or with one of the installed drivers for your notebook"?

Have you ever reinstalled your keyboard drivers?
