What has changed since it last time worked ?

F10 is a bios level operation, it has nothing to do with windows.

Either some hardware has changed or bios settings has changed.

Are you using a USB keyboard? If so, try a non-USB one and see if that
works. If it does, and you can now get into BIOS, look for the section that
enables Legacy USB Devices and make sure it is enabled.

I'd try a different keyboard

It was the KB. I would have never believed it.
It worked perfectly on all other keys, ONLY F10 was not working.
