And you want your Windows 10 to start right up to the desktop when you start your computer, without the hassle of having to enter a password.

If you are sure that you definitely do not need a password when entering, then I will tell you step by step with pictures, how to disable password entry when logging into Windows 10.

In Windows 10, this is done in the same way as in previous versions this operating system Microsoft companies: "seven" and "eight".

Therefore, I am adding here a way to cope with this task as well.

The keyboard is one of the main devices for entering information into the computer's memory. Several groups of keys are distinguished on the keyboard. To enter numbers, you can use not only the keys of the alphabet, but also the numeric block.

On the right of the keyboard there is an additional (or numeric) block of keys, the main purpose of which is to duplicate the functions of the alphanumeric group when entering characters arithmetic operations and numbers. It has 17 keys, most of which have dual functionality and are sometimes inactive. As an example, let's try to include the numbers on the right of the keyboard in several ways.

Toggle with the "Num Lock" key

Activation of one of the two modes of operation of the numeric keypad is possible if there is a "Num Lock" key on it, which serves as a kind of trigger. To enable the side keyboard using it, you must:

• Find and press the "Num Lock" key located in the first row on the numeric keypad (the corresponding indicator should light up at the top);
• Disabling the mode of entering numbers will occur when you press "Num Lock" again (the indicator will go out).

Enabling numbers on a laptop

Due to the saving of space on the laptop keyboard, additional keys are often missing. Their functions are transferred to a group of keys on the main keyboard - these buttons are usually highlighted in a different color.

Enabling the numeric keypad on a laptop is done as follows:

• You need to press the key combination "Fn + F11" (it depends on the used laptop model);
• If there is no result, you need to experimentally find the key used in combination with "Fn" (it is better to press the "F1" - "F12" keys 2 times, so that in case of deactivation of any function, activate it again, otherwise you can turn off the sound, the screen or lock the keyboard).

Changing BIOS settings

Some BIOS version have the "Num Lock Status" option, with the help of which it is possible to turn on the side keyboard. To change its value, you will need:

• Restart the computer ("Start" -> "Shutdown" -> "Restart");
• Wait for a new download cycle;
• When the indicators on the keyboard blink, press the key to enter the BIOS (usually "Del", "F2", "F10", or key combinations, which can be found in the user manual, or viewed on the screen at boot time);
• Find the "Num Lock Status" option and set the switch to the "On" position.

Conventional keyboards are divided into several sectors. On the far right side there is a numeric keypad. In laptops, this section is either completely combined with the main keyboard, or even removed altogether, adding the function of entering numbers to the other keys on the right of the main unit.

Whether your laptop has a numeric keypad or not, it's not always on. And the Num Lock key, which is designed to activate it in standard keyboards, may simply be missing. How can I turn it on or off?

There are three ways to do this. One of them will definitely suit you.

1. Press the Num Lock key. If it is, it is usually located at the top right of the entire keyboard. More precisely, somewhere on the upper left of the numeric keypad. Sometimes, during its activation, a special indicator turns on, the same as for the Caps Lock key. Don't look for it for a long time, it may not be there either.

2. The combination of keys Fn + F11. Most often, this combination works on those laptops where there is no numeric keypad at all. More precisely - it is combined with the main block of keys. The Fn + F11 combination changes the functionality of the right keyboard block from numeric to normal and vice versa. In rare cases, it activates / deactivates a separate sector of the numeric keys.

By the way, on different laptops the combination may differ, for example, not Fn + F11, but Fn + F10 or Fn + Fn12. Try it. Just be careful when doing such an experiment. You can change other parameters, such as mute the sound, lock the keyboard, turn off the screen, and more. Just trying it, press the key combination twice to deactivate some function and immediately activate it back.

3. Screen keyboard. This method is the simplest, most original and at the same time effective. I bought a laptop Acer aspire... There is an additional keyboard, but there is no Num Lock, and combinations with Fn are intended for other tasks. I hovered over turning on the numeric keypad until I came across this elegantly simple method.

We open the on-screen keyboard. It usually displays the actual state of your real keyboard. That is, it may also not display both the number pad and the Num Lock key. In this case, on the on-screen keyboard, click on the "Parameters" key. A window will open where you need to check the box to enable numeric keypad... We turn on and see that the digital block has appeared. Next, click on Num Lock. Voila, the keyboard is activated.

Who does not know, you can find the on-screen keyboard in the Start / Accessories / Accessibility / On-Screen Keyboard menu. Or even simpler - "Start", in the search menu we enter "keyboard" or "keyboard". The system will present the options found, between which you will surely find the on-screen keyboard.

Most modern phones there is a typing function using the T9 service. With its help, you can make the probability of typing errors minimal. If the system is installed, then it will automatically select words based on already entered characters and complete phrases. Even if you make a mistake, she will be able to put the correct letter.

But what if your phone or is not enabled by default? Do I need to additionally install some software on Flaym, or you can configure everything directly on the phone without third-party programs? Today we will figure out how to enable T9 on Meizu M3S, and other similar models from this manufacturer.

Smart Keyboard app

One of the T9 alternatives is the Smart Keyboard program. This is a great option if you have lost your T9 system, but really want to use predictive text input. Moreover, here the dictionary is more extensive and more correct word recognition is observed when typing. And the application works faster.

The principle of operation in this case is exactly the same as in the previous case. Across Google play download the program and install it. Through the settings, we expose Smart Key as the main program for entering text. Problems when typing text from this moment disappear once and for all.
