Numbers lock off when restarting

After upgrading my Windows 8.1 system to to Windows10 , when I restart or turn on my computer the numbers lock key is not turned on. This may sound trivial, but if I forget about it, my passwords won't work because many of the passwords contain numbers. Is there a way for me to keep the numbers lock key on when my computer restarts?
Thanks,
Mary

Doesn't happen on the desktop computer I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, just on the laptop I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10.

i'm sure there is a program for this, but have you by chance checked your bios? usually that sort of setting is set within the bios on boot.

Check in your BIOS for the num lock setting... like @vladthedog said.

Please excuse my ignorance, but how do I do that?

depends on your model/brand of computer, but oftentimes when you first turn it on, it will tell you to "press XXX to enter setup/bios" or something like that.

Could you tell us the make and model of your laptop, Advanced settings are disabled in most of the laptops.
