The HP Pavilion 5189 uses “hot” keys on the keyboard, which enable you to launch applications or perform other functions by simply pressing one of the keys, rather than navigating through menus or performing other multi-step processes. You cannot reprogram the keys on the laptop’s embedded keyboard, but you can reprogram the easy access keys on an HP USB keyboard, which you plug into the computer. Changing the settings takes only a few moments and can help to increase your productivity or make using your computer easier.
