Windows 10: Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard & Number pad

My sculpt ergonomic keyboards and number pads changed performance recently. I suspect some change in Windows 10.

Number keys stopped working regardless of Num Lock state. Calculator, / *, - + buttons work as expected.

On keyboard, the first character typed does not always ppear ==> appear.


Updated drivers, changed batteries, rebooted computer and usb transceiver -- no help.


Using Dell Precision 5520, Win10 -- two months old.


Keyboard and number pad worked until a couple weeks ago.


I have 3 sculpt keyboards and number pads, one at each desk location. Two connect via docking stations, the via USB hub. All three systems exhibit same issues, so I don't think it is computer HW or the devices.


Please advise next action.
