Windows 10 Bootcamp Fn Keys not working

So, I recently Installed Windows 10 Pro (Not Preview), and everything seemed to work fine except the Fn Keys. I am now unable to change the Brightness, Volume, etc.

I went to my Mac Partition, erased my 8GB Flash Drive to (FAT), and went to bootcamp and selected to copy the Drivers into the USB. I did this and when I installed it, I restarted as promoted, and still, the Fn Keys didn't work.

Any suggestions?

Mac OS X Yosemite

Windows 10

MacBook Pro Mid-2014

Thanks in advance,

Coto

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

I actually got it working. If you take that USB with the bootcamp and driver stuff on it and open it up, go to this folder, my usb was in the E drive, "E:\BootCamp\Drivers\Apple" and in that folder there is a file called "AppleKeyboardInstaller64".. Just install that and it should work. That is what I did and it works now. I thought I would test this out since I have done stuff like this before too 🙂 I hope it works for you as well. Good luck!

No, I had Windows 8, and Upgraded to Windows 10 Manually. Before, on Windows 8, the Function Keys seemed to work just fine. After the Windows 10 Upgrade, the Fn Keys stopped working. I got F1, F2 to work (Brightness) by going on Control Panel -> Bootcamp -> Keyboard. But that's it, I didn't get the rest to work.
