Num+ don`t work in Windows 10

Post by *wazib3 »

Lately I upgraded my system from Windows 7 do Windows 10. Unfortunately in Total Commander stop working short keyboard "Num+", "Num-", "Num*" (select or deselect many files with mask).
What can I do to fix it?

No such problem here under Windows 10 x64
Tested with TC 9.0b7 x86 and x64
All default short-cuts are working.
Check your keyboard assigments in TC options
or disable any third party software which eats the num keys.
Windows 11 Home, Version 24H2 (OS Build 26100.4351)
TC 11.55 RC7 x64 / x86
Everything 1.5.0.1396a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.5.5.0, Listary Pro 6.3.2.88
QAP 11.9.0.6 x64

No problems with Windows 10, 1511 here either on TC 8.52 or TC 9x

Are you using a laptop or a PC with a "real" keyboard?

Have you tried to run TC with a clean ini file?

Maybe the state of the NumLock key determines whether NUM+ works or not. It's also possible that the numeric keypad doesn't work when it's overlaying the normal keyboard.

I use PC with "real" keyboard (not laptop). My system is Windows 10 Pro 64.

Thank ghisler , you are right. It works when I switch off Num Lock.

Interesting - on all my PC's (win 7, win 8.1 and win 10, laptops and stationary) Num+, Num- etc. works with both Num-lock on and off.

Maybe there is a BIOS setting on wazib3's PC where the behaviour of Numlock can be modified, just as there often is a BIOS setting to make the F-keys work the "old" way or with factory-defined functions (often multimedia functions)

Interesting, but I don`t think it was a BIOS fault. Previously I was working on Windows 7 - 64 and NUM+ works apart from Num Lock state.
Just after upgrade to Windows 10 state of Num Lock meaning for Num+ and so on.

Ctrl+¸ (key to the left of 1 in QWERTY part) doesn't work on W10, works fine on W7....

Odd.

If you feel inclined, run this script with AutoHotkey.

Code: Select all

 #ifWinActive ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD
  +=::+
  +::
  -::
  NumPadAdd::
  NumPadSub::
  	ToolTip, % A_ThisHotkey
  	return
 #ifWinActive
Question: When Total Commander is Active,
What Tooltips do you get when you press "-" and "+" on the Numpad,
1) when NumLock is on, and
2) when NumLock is off.
*BLINK* TC9 Added WM_COPYDATA and WM_USER queries for scripting.
