WHY?!!!!? (I know shouting doesn'tįinally found a solution that DOES work to keep the NumLock key activated under Windows 10 - disabling the "Fast start up" option. You would think they had received enough complaints about that, and yet they programmed in this same behavior in Windows 10 AND somehow have disabled the end users' ability to apply any of the fixes found previously.

Of doing so - to activate the number key after your system has booted into Windows so that you can put in your correct password - with numbers - but why should we have to? Setting this in the BIOS has been all we have needed for YEARS, until Windows 8. Sure, it is easy enough - once you get into the habit Microsoft's arbitrary decision to override our personal preference to have the NumLock key always activated is beginning to **** me off! There is a reason why we have it set to "always on" in the BIOS. I am not sure why this would work, and it didn't work for me, but apparently some people have had luck with it so it might be worth a try.

The site doesn't recognize that Flash is integrated in Edge, either, says you need to download the latest version of Flash. Their own gaming site, the MSN Game zone, lets you know that you should be using Internet Explorer (Slightly off topic: Guess I shouldn't be surprised by Microsoft and their habit of introducing new products that really aren't quite ready for prime time. Windows 10 when they had plenty of time to do so before rolling out their "brand new.but still based on DOS, lol." operating system.

This "fix" must be a bit of a pain for those who aren't comfortable working with the Registry and it seems hard to believe that Microsoft has been dealing with users complaining about this annoyance since Windows 8 but still didn't bother to change the behavior in A simple search for "Windows 10 and NumLock key" showed me that many of usĪre/were having the same problem and it was being caused by the OS. Was apparently slow to realize that this was something Windows 10 was doing - upgraded from Windows 7 so didn't know this had been a known problem with the last versions of Windows.
Part of my initial log in password includes numbers so it was annoying to have to input my password, realize the NumLock key was not activated and have to press the NumLock key and input my password again. I
This suggested edit of the registry worked for me.
