Top Fixes When the Number Pad Is Not Working in Windows 11
All keyboards will include number keys at the top, and if you use a full-sized keyboard, it probably has number keys on the right. However, there are times when the numbers key of a Windows 11 keyboard does not work. You should fix the problem using the solutions in this guide.
Fix 1: Try Some Basic Checks and Fixes
Before going into any complex troubleshooting, you should try the following:
- Check Num Lock – The numbers may have been disabled. Tapping the Num Lock key or switch will reactivate them.
- Restart your computer – If some temporal glitches trigger the problem, a simple restart will be strong enough to fix it.
- Check for physical damage – if some blunt force has been applied to your keyboard, some keys may be broken. By inspecting closely, you may discover if this is the case.
If the problem persists after these preliminary checks, move on to the next fix.
Fix 2: Disable Control the Mouse With the Keyboard
1. Type in Control Panel in the Taskbar’s search box, and click on the app to open it.
2. Change View by to Large icon and click Ease of Access Center.
3. Click Make the keyboard easier to use.
4. Disable Turn on mouse keys under the Control the mouse with the keyboard section, then click Apply. You should now be able to use the number pad keys on your Windows 11 device.
Fix 3: Run the Hardware Troubleshooter
While this troubleshooter is not optimized for keyboard problems, it will generally resolve hardware issues, and if these issues affect the keyboard, it will fix it.
1. Open the Run dialog by pressing Windows + R.
2. Type cmd and hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter to open a Command Prompt with advanced rights.
3. Type the command below and hit Enter.
msdt.exe -id DeviceDiagnostic
5. Click Next and follow the wizard to complete the troubleshooting.
Fix 4: Update your Keyboard Drivers
Drivers form a vital communication link between hardware components and the operating system. When the Keyboard driver is outdated, you may experience several issues, which may be a possible reason why the number pad is not working on a Windows 11 keyboard. Fix it with the steps below.
1. Right-click the Start menu and click Control Panel.
2. Expand the Keyboards category, right-click on your keyboard driver, and click Update driver.
3. Click Search automatically for drivers; your computer should update the driver.
Note: You may also employ driver updating software to update your drivers.
If none of the solutions we have shared work, you may consider using your computer’s virtual keyboard or referring to your keyboard maker, especially if you use an external keyboard.
