Following up on the questions Permanently disable num lock in Windows? and Windows INSERT key anti-functionality accidentally triggers; how to stop it permanently?, I am trying to disable caps lock, num lock, and insert (or numpad-0 on my keyboard). Combining those answers, I tried the following. Apparently I've got it wrong. It does disable caps lock and num lock, but numpad-0 still puts me into overtype mode, which I never want, ever ever, ever, ever.
- Click Start > Run
- Type "regedit"
- Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
- While Keyboard Layout has focus, go to Edit > New > Binary Value
- Enter "Scancode Map" as the name
Enter the following as the Data:
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
06 00 00 00 3A 00 00 00
00 00 3A 00 00 00 45 00
00 00 52 E0 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
How can I permanently disable all three of the evil modal keys?
