    Anyone got NumPad working in Windows 10?


    I downloaded NumPad from SourceForge, doesn't seem to *do* anything. Anybody had any success running this and having a visible pad?

    By "visible pad" do you mean an on-screen number pad for those devices with touch screen? Or do you mean the Desktop keyboards or Notebooks/Laptops that have the added Number Pad? Win10 does turn those off but there is a fix [Registry edit], should be in one of the Tutorials on this site. Or do you mean the game from Source Forge?

    There's an application called "NumPad.exe" which is available from SourceForge.

    It implements (supposedly) an on-screen numeric pad that you click with a mouse. Except I can't get it to display anything. I ran it and nothing happened. Ran it again - checked in task manager and two instances of numpad,exe were running, but nothing on display.

    Considering the responses here, you may need to visit the SourceForge site for your answer.

    Good luck.

    Seems redundant. Windows 10 has a virtual keyboard with a toggle-able numeric keypad.

    Yeah, but it takes up a lot of screen-space. I want something with just the keys I don't already have.

    Sorry about that. I had changed schools back in '56 and needed more credit, took the typing class [manual typewriters, teacher wouldn't let us use her brand-new electric], have trouble getting used to routinely using the Number Pad.
