I am familiar with the windows snipping tool, and have the user using this as an
alternative until I can figure out how/if the F1 key shortcut can be enabled
with GIMP and Win 10.

Thanks to both of you for the replies.

Alex > when F1 is pressed the selection tool of GIMP is opened, and once a
selection is made the GIMP editing tools, etc become available, and there is the
GIMP icon in the taskbar.
By "whatever captured" I am referring to the use of the selection tool. Once a
selection is made, everything within the selection is captured, and the GIMP
options become available to edit, save as specific file type, etc.

That's got nothing to do with GIMP, and probably nothing to do with Windows
either - I'm guessing that the old laptops default to having the F-keys
mapped to media keys (and you need to press Fn+F1 to actually get F1), and
have HP's driver installed which interprets those media keys to run
different programs. You might be able to do the same on the new laptops by
changing the setting in BIOS and installing HP's hotkey program.

How do you know it's GIMP?

And what does "whatever captured" mean?

This is either a very custom GIMP (and I have no idea who'd have  done
this), or a totally different application. Maybe the Windows snipping tool?
