Navigate to HKEY_USERS\Default\Control Panel\Keyboard.To set NumLock to a default 'On' at boot-up, get to your system's registry - the "InitialKeyboardIndicators" value has to be set to "2".Įnsure that you are accessing/ changing settings for Default users. Please ensure you have enough knowledge about registry, and know what you are doing.

There is a way as recommended by a community user to do it through registry, however, there is a risk and may mess up the system if you do not carry it out carefully. I keep getting my password wrong as I seem incapable of remembering to switch it on each time I log in. I've got a H530 desktop running Windows8.1, so no BIOS (as such), and I can't get the NumLock to come on when it boots. Can anyone tell me how to get the NumLock to default to "on" at boot-up?
