  1. Can't use + key on Num Pad without holding shift in windows 10 only?


    This has me thoroughly stumped.

    I am unable to use the + key on the numpad without holding down shift with it. All keyboard testers online show the key is working by itself. If I remote in and login to a Windows Server 2012 machine, it works fine without the need to hold shift. Using a different keyboard plugged in, the same issue occurs - it won't work unless I hold shift. The same issue occurs when I use the Windows 10 on screen keyboard.

    Anyone have any thoughts? I have checked all the ease of access settings like sticky keys and turned them all off.

    Number Pad behavior when holding the Shift key.

    Currently the behavior of the number pad while Num-Lock is engaged is for Num-Lock to be temporarily disengaged when holding the shift key. For example pressing Shift + Numpad_1 whith Num-Lock on will be recognized as pressing the End key.

    How can I stop Shift from temporarily disabling Num-Lock?

    I want Shift+Numpad_1 to be recognized as such and not as End etc.

    Num pad won't type numbers, just moves mouse

    You have pressed NUM LOCK key, possibly accidentally. The key is on top left corner of num pad, it toggles num pad ON / OFF. When off, number keys work as mouse keys.

    key 10 pad numbers - not working is their some kinda toggle key??? besides num lock.

    our office got these keyboards for us and we have had all kinds of "weird" little issues... like this -- we are not happy with these keyboards.
