Windows 10: Disable NumLock Off functionality.

I work with VMs and I sometimes press the key accidentally and find myself with my numpad becoming useless until I notice the issue and turn NumLock back on.I don't see a valid usecase for having NumLock off for anyone using a full size keyboard.Is there a way to enforce that NumLock never turns off no matter what happens. Like VM connection through Hyper-V, remote connection through RDP or accidental presses of the NumLock key is performed?

Windows10 - numlock not on at startup

Hi guys,

Trick was not really helpful.

After a logon, the NumLock key is now effectively on, but I need this before the logon.

My logon password has digits, and I would need the Numlock key to be «ON» at the logon process.

Is there another way to solve that ??

Thanks for your help.

Windows10 - numlock not on at startup

Hi,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Please follow the steps below and check if it works fine:

Disable Fast Startup, to enable Num Lock. Follow the steps:

• Press Win + X and click on Control Panel
• Click on Power Plan
• Now click on Choose what the power buttons do on the left side panel
• Now select Change settings that are currently unavailable.
• Scroll down and uncheck Turn on fast startup (recommended) .

That’s it. Now after shutting down and reboot your NumLock should retain the last configuration.

Thank You.
