What do the F11 and F12 keys do for you on a modern PC? I don't know of their uses offhand.

F11 is often fullscreen, and F12 is sometimes a screenshot button in some games.

If using a debugger with Visual Studio-type keyboard shortcuts, F11 = step in, Shift+F11 = step out.

If running under the Visual Studio debugger, you can also press F12 with the debuggee in focus to break into the process.

I use F12 several dozen times per day because it is the "Save as..." shortcut in MS Office. Much better and quicker than navigating the menus
