Windows 10: can i force win8 touch keyboard?

win10 version sucks.

• pressing touch keyboard icon on taskbar with pin on win1- will launch the handwriting panel. i rarely ever actually want that, i just use the pen because it's easier to use that than fat thumbs. back on windows 8, the normal touch keyboard would still load when you pressed touch keyboard icon on taskbar with pen.
  
• i hate the win10 'thumb keyboard', the second view where the letters are split off to each side. on win8 this had numbers in the middle, making entering passwords which both letters and jnumbers in them easy, on win10 the middle part where numbers used to be is a gigantic hole. 4

Why does the Surface RT Win8 phone app not see my phone (NOK822) when I connect it?

I downloaded the Win8RT WinPhone app to my Surface, and then connected my Win8 phone (NOK822) to my Surface via USB cable, and the app never detects that the phone is connected? How do I force the recognition? I'm looking to transfer some music off the
Surface onto my Win8 phone.

Indeed, it's personal. I have a Win8 phone and I'm incredibly sorry for buying it although it did a great impression on the first touch.

 

I am not aware that you can customise the touch keyboard. Others on this forum have suggested using FreeVirtualKeyboard
