Windows 10: Shift key all of a sudden started changing how the numpad works

So I sometimes use a cheat program in games I play just for fun and like to cut out dumb amounts of farming in most games and usually a lot of the cheats are set up already to use Shift + NumPad 1, 2, 3, etc. and it always worked fine I think I have been using it for over a year. Now all of a sudden when I hold Shift for the numpad it's changing 1 to End , 7 to Home, 3 to PgDn, 9 to PgUp, etc. Is there a way to fix this because I literally only use the numpad for the numbers? I don't even see a point for it to use the other settings since they're right next to each other and have no other

What recognizes the Shift key as a trigger to disable numpad? This is not a normal Windows setting.

Argh, took me forever to figure out what was causing this. I use displayfusion and have the prevent deactivation function bound to the insert key. Worked wel enough for years now.

The problem begins when I try to use my razer naga mouse in games and bind key combinations. The 10 key on the mouse corresponds to numpad 0.

I need to be able to bind shift+that key. Every time I pressed shift+that key it would toggle the "prevent deactivation" in displayfusion and I couldnt figure it out. I thought it was some kind of default shortcut in displayfusion or something.

Turns out, holding down shift disables numpad. In doing so it reverts the mouse 10 key from numpad0 to its non numpad state which is (you guessed it) insert.

I believe via my convoluted research a means exists to modify this behavior via registry but thats well above my paygrade.

Anyone know what key needs to be deleted or modified?

 

Since update numpad doesn't work properly anymore

Good evening,

On a HP Pavilion dv7 laptop, since a Windows10 update two days ago (version 1511, OS 10586.104), my numpad has gone nuts.

For example :

• key 2 writes 72, locks caps and opens a Bing search for "help with windows 10"
• key 3 writes *3wc
• key / writes /4 and triggers a menu for alternative screens
• etc...

Here is what I already attempted :

• uninstall and reinstall keyboard
• add an alternative language keyboard
• check "ease of access" options
• try the numpad in the BIOS : it works fine
• try the numpad in safe mode, now read this : it worked fine ! I restarted in normal mode and the keyboard worked fine also for a minute or so. Then it went crazy again. Now it doesn't work in safe mode anymore.

Any suggestion welcome,

Thank you for your help
