Laptop power modes stops working after W10 Updates

I got a W10 Laptop by Jumper who sadly don't reply to emails.

When you get the Laptop it has 3 different modes QUIET, BALANCED & HIGH PERFORMANCE. I believe it changes power levels and CPU Frequency or something. This is done by pressing FN+F to cycle the different modes.

However after a couple of Windows updates it stops working and nothing happens with FN+F. Other FN functions work fine so it is not the FN key that is the issue. Reinstalling  Windows fixes it. So i can only think Windows Updates do something to the power settings that override the FN+F function? 

So does anyone know how i can get the function to still work while having the latest W11 updates?

    Disable Windows updates temporarily to see if the problem persists without updates. Use Windows Power Plans as a fallback if the FN+F utility doesn’t work anymore. Contact Jumper support via forums or social media—they might have community solutions or beta drivers.
