Number Lock on Win10
My laptop running Win 10 seems to have a mind of its own as regards Num
Lock. And no obvious indication when it is on or off. I only ever use the numbers side, so would like it to stay on except by deliberately changing it (say by several key presses - perhaps ctrl num lock or whatever). (I don't have the same problem on a desktop PC with an old IBM style keyboard - and that has a Num Lock LED. -- *Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

You may be able to configure the default setting in the BIOS. Theo |

It puts and icon in the system status bar which indicates the setting of number lock, caps lock and scroll lock. https://keyboard-leds.com/ |

That beeps if you inadvertently hit num lock or caps lock. Settings ... ease of access... keyboard |
