Ease of access mouse key not working (can't move the mouse)

[crystal6tak]

Hey all!

 

TIL you could control the mouse with the numpad with a built in software called Mouse Keys in windows. I tried using it but the mouse cursor wouldn't budge. Everything else (clicking, highlighting, selecting mouse click, disabling/enabling mouse key) works, except using 7,8,9,4,6,1,2,3 to move the mouse. Quick google showed no results. Anyone have any idea?

 

EDIT: I'm using Windows 10 64 bit

 

Thank you!

There's a software built into windows called Mouse Keys. It can be enabled under Ease of Access Center in the Control Panel. It allows control of the mouse cursor using keyboard numpads.

 

When I used it, the keys that were supposed to move the cursor (e.g. 4 on the numpad to move the cursor to the left), does not work.

Turn off your num lock if it turns on, it sure will work

Oh it does work. The acceleration was so ungodly slow I couldn't tell it was moving. Had to hold the key down for several seconds before there was any movement. Changed it to max acceleration now, still slower than I'd like. Any idea how to get it faster than Fast acceleration?
