    Number pad that comes with Sculpt wireless keyboard.

    Hi,

    This problem may occur due to an outdated or corrupted device driver. For us to provide the best resolution possible, we'll be needing additional information:

    • Is the number pad device visible on Device Manager?
    • Is the wireless keyboard working on your computer?

    Meanwhile, we suggest following the troubleshooting steps provided on this
    article    . It contains information and basic troubleshooting steps regarding keyboard problems in Windows.

    We're looking forward to your reply.

    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.

    My numeric pad for MS sculpt keyboard will not enter numbers

    Enter non-breaking space without a numeric keyboard pad?

    In Windows 10, I need a way to enter a non-breaking space. (The application, an old version of Finale, does not have a built-in shortcut for the purpose).

    And I have to do it on a laptop that does not have a dedicated numeric pad.

    If I attach an external keyboard, Alt+0160 (on numeric pad) works perfectly. But I can't find a way to replicate it on the built-in keyboard, which has no numeric keypad. If I use the regular number keys at the top, Alt+0160 does nothing, nor does Alt+Fn+0160.

    Is there a working way to enter a non-breaking space? (Apart from copy-pasting the one I entered with the external keyboard, of course).
