Configuring the On-Screen Keyboard

The On-Screen keyboard is very useful for any device in general, particularly touch-based devices, because it enables you to use your device without a physical keyboard. The On-Screen Keyboard provides considerable options to personalize it so that you can use sticky, toggle and filter keys; change how keyboard shortcuts work; and make it easier to type. To access it quickly and easily, the small icon of a keyboard is available in the system tray too.

To enable the On-Screen Keyboard, complete the following steps:

  1. Press the Windows key + I to open Windows Settings.
  2. With Windows Settings open, select Ease of Access.
  1. Select Keyboard on the Ease of Access navigation menu.
  2. From the Use your device without a physical keyboard section (as shown in the following screenshot), you can turn on the keyboard:
