Hi sid666 and welcome.

You have probably deleted some of the Sony Utilities.

To reinstall them download the Sony Original Utilities Package from VAIO-LINK. Right-click on the downloaded .ZIP file and choose "Extract All". Extract the download into a temporary folder like C:\ Utils. They are the bottom item here: -

For the function keys to work you will need to install some of the Utilities in the correct order:

1 Sony Utilities (installer folder 1)
2 Sony Shared Library (installer folder 2)
3 Vaio Event Service (installer folder ?)

And then re-boot your Vaio - you may have to repeat the process as it sometimes needs to be repeated.!

:wink:
