Disabling the ability of toggling numpad by pressing shift key.

Anonymous

I have recently discovered that by pressing shift key, you are capable of temporarily switching numpad modes from numbers to Home/End/PgUp/PgDown and arrow keys.

Despite shift toggling the keypad being quaint, I have never used or needed this and it is bothersome as I use my keypad for assigning mouse macros in gaming.

How can I permanently disable this function in windows?

Thank you.

Try the following solutions it may work out,.?

How do I turn off shift toggle : open Control-Panel and click

***Ease of access*** &gt;&gt; New click on "**Ease of Access center**"

Now on the shown options >> click - Make the keyboard easier to use

 on next screen &gt;&gt; if you find the [✔] ***Sticky keys*** - On &gt;&gt; Turn it - Off 

          You can also &gt;&gt; Turn off &gt;&gt; The shortcut, so it won't activate again

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            Wait a minute : Check the status also of the option

[✔] Turn on toggle keys by holding Down the NUM Lock keys for 5 seconds

                *if has a ✔ Checkmark you can unChecked to verify*

what happens : if produce issues, you can check it again

                      on my **Microsft** Curb Keyboard, this option is

     the only1 that, appears with Checkmark [✔]

This tutorial shows the same hotfix..Hope it helps
