- stephenatwork 15y agoMost laptops have a way to use the numpad equivalent by holding down the function key, though I don't have a laptop in front of my to verify that it will still bypass the screen locker with the command.
- plaes 15y agoYou can do it on regular laptop keyboard too.. Usually the "numpad" is available via "Fn" key - so make sure that Num lock is on and press `Ctrl+Alt+Fn+*`
- a_a_r_o_n 15y agoMy Compaq laptop has an embedded numpad, located in the vicinity of the right hand home row. The numpad keys are noted as a key symbol inside a square. Set numlock will enable the numpad keys by default. If numlock is not set, then fn-numpadkey gets the numpad version of the key pressed. E.g. fn-p is *.
- huhtenberg 15y agoMost laptops have the Fn button. Fn+ScrLk is NumLk, and then Ctrl-Alt-8 (on my Lenovo) is exactly the same as Ctrl-Alt-Numpad/8 on a regular keyboard.
