Windows 10: How do I to stop Mouse Keys from enabling on start up?

I have had a problem for some time now that Mouse Keys would seemingly randomly enable itself automatically, even though the keyboard shortcut is disabled and has not been pressed. I recently worked out that during startup, if no mouse is detected by the system Mouse Keys is turned on automatically regardless of any setting I can find. Is there a way to disable this functionality? I understand how it was reasoned to be useful but it just creates a lot of headache for me to go in and turn it off or reboot with it plugged in.Thanks.

Mouse Keys will not turn off

Hi Casey,

Thank you for a detailed description of your issue. Since you've already tried unchecking the option
Use the numeric keypad to move the mouse and still getting the same result, I suggest that you also turn off the option
Use mouse keys when NumLock is on. On the Change sign-in settings, select the
Make the mouse easier to use > Select Set up Mouse Keys, then make sure to unchecked
or turned off the following click Apply, then OK.

• Turn on Mouse Keys - Use the numeric keyboard to move the mouse the screen.
• Use Mouse Keys when NUM LOCK is Off.

Once done, go back to the Change sign-in settings, then this time click the
Make keyboard easier to use, then unchecked the
Turn on Mouse Keys. Click Apply, then OK.

Once done, close your Control Panel page and check if Mouse Keys still enables automatically.

If you have additional questions, or if the issue persists after the troubleshooting steps above, please let me know by replying to this thread. This way, I'll get notified and respond back to you as soon as I can.

Num lock key turns off

Hi Susan,

The status of the Numlock key is the same as it was in when you shut down your computer properly. If it was on when you shut it down it will be on when you again turn the computer on. In the meantime, let's check out if the mouse keys are turned off and see
if this address the problem. Follow the steps below:

• Click the Start key, select Settings.
• Click Ease of Access, then Mouse.
• Toggle Off Mouse keys.

If the issue persists, we suggest that you try the troubleshooting steps that was provided by
