When I try to issue orders to my troops such as "Hold this Position" and so forth, nothing happens. I am using the steam version and have verified game cache without any result.

I have looked through other threads about this but no one had provided a solution. Just in case someone might know something I post this here.
 
Its the keys above the numbers, not f+number keys.

Are you on a laptop? If you are, then follow my post from this old thread where someone asked a similar question.

You likely have some bindings on those keys which also serve for things like brightness, volume, (i.e. it turns them into multimedia keys) etc. You wouldn't happen to haven a "Function" key in between your left control and windows key would you? If you do, then you need to this:

Re-boot your computer, go to your setup (it's usually F2, so in your case you'd press "Fn+F2" if you have a Function Key) and then go to "System configuration". From there you'll see "Function Key Behaviour". Switch it to "Function key first" then apply and save. After that, your F keys should work as they do on a regular desktop keyboard.

To use the multimedia functions again, you just have to press "Fn+ the appropriate F key", but  your likelihood of using those very often is less than the regular F keys, so having your keyboard set up this way works better.
