  1. Windows 10 1909 Boots with Numlock Disabled?


    I've looked into this already and I tried making the registry edits suggested here. https://www.thewindowsclub.com/numlock-startup-windows-7-8, and here https://superuser.com/a/1206367

    "First, head to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard. Double-click the “InitialKeyboardIndicators” value in the right pane and set it to “2”.

    Next, expand the “HKEY_USERS” folder. You’ll now need to repeat the above process several times, changing the InitialKeyboardIndicators value under each folder inside the HKEY_USERS folder.

    Start by going to HKEY_USERS.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard, and changing the InitialKeyboardIndicators value to 2. Next, repeat the process for the folder below the .DEFAULT folder–it’ll start with an “S-“.

    Repeat this process for the remaining folders inside HKEY_USERS, changing the Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators setting under each one.

    Next, shut down, then boot the computer back up again. When you reach the login screen, press the Num Lock key once to enable it. Don’t log into the computer. From the login screen, click the power button and select “Shut down” to shut down the computer again.

    Boot the computer back up and Num Lock will be enabled on the login screen. It seems that this puts Fast Startup into a state where it will automatically enable Num Lock at every boot. "


    Neither seem to have been retained after restarting. I really prefer to have function enabled at startup, so any help with this is greatly appreciated. ♥

    Keyboard NUMLOCK


    Just reloaded Windows 10 and I can't keep the NUMLOCK on. I have tried many suggestions. I have looked at the registry and it shows on and the bio shows it is on. Any suggestions?

  3. Windows 10 1909 Causes Secondary Hard Drive to not be Recognized

    Installing the Windows 10 1909 Update causes my secondary hard drive to not be recognized.

    Steps to confirm issue:

    • Secondary drive not visible in Windows Explorer
    • Secondary drive not visible in device manager
    • Secondary drive not visible in disk manager

    Steps to replicate issue:

    • Installing 1909 update

    Steps to resolve issue:

    • Uninstall 1909 update

    Since updates can only be delayed for so long, an actual fix would be appreciated.

    Windows10 - numlock not on at startup

    Hi guys,

    Trick was not really helpful.

    After a logon, the NumLock key is now effectively on, but I need this before the logon.

    My logon password has digits, and I would need the Numlock key to be «ON» at the logon process.

    Is there another way to solve that ??

    Thanks for your help.

    Robert
