Desktop refreshes when using function keys

Hello,

I updated to windows 11 a while ago, and ever since the new update my desktop refreshes when using any function key.

For example, let's say I use Fn+F5 to increase the volume; The volume does increase, but the desktop refreshes.

The desktop refreshes with all shortcuts, and it's very annoying. I was wondering if there was any way to stop it.

Thanks,

Gino.

My computer is an Alienware m15.

F5 refreshes the screen when used with the FN key. Volume is F5 alone--without the FN key. So it's is working correctly. Media F1-F2 alone is the default (doesn't require the FN key.)
