Windows 10: How To Make A Bullet Point W/O Numeric Keypad?

I looked here but perhaps it is still to early in the morning for me to comprehend what I am reading:

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+do+you...146-6__&ia=web

I am used to a keypad and all I needed to do was to hold down the alt key and hit 0149 and presto a bullet point would appear at the end of my renamed folder. New computer does not have a keypad.

When I went to hold down the alt key and highlighted the folder that I wanted to rename and held down the alt key and then started and hit the 0 the computer beeped at me; the nerve.

I really know nothing about the function keys since I have never used them before. Right now the upper left top key that says ESC FnLock is lit up. If I just start hitting the key row below that say 1 or 2 or 3 they show up in a document or here for example as I write this.

I know that if I hold down the Fn key and depress the sound - key the third one from the left on the top that has F2 underneath the sound - character I can adjust the sound lower.

I thought that if I held down the Fn key and the alt key at the same time and tried to insert a bullet point at the end of the folder that I am trying to rename by then typing 0149 that would work but uh uh. And as an aside I just realized I no longer have my trusty Num Lock key : (

So just to summarize. I highlight a folder that I want to rename and position the cursor at the end of that folder where I want to insert the bullet point.

Help for dummies requested. TIA.

Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic Keyboard, Mouse and Numeric keypad

I had a set of the above ie Microsoft Sculpt ergonomic keyboard, moue and numeric keypad which all worked fine until I broke the bluetooth receiver.

I bought a universal bluetooth receiver but it didn't work and so I returned it.

I ended up buying a new keyboard on its own with a bluetooth receiver. It didn't come with the numeric keypad or mouse.

I've been trying to connect up my old mouse and numeric keypad to the new bluetooth receiver but with no joy.

I have followed various steps suggested when I have searched for the solution, including uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers etc.

My computer is not finding the mouse.

How can I pair up my old mouse and numeric keypad with the new keyboard and receiver?

Thank you
