The feature is found on many modern Asus laptops whose keyboard lacks a full numeric keypad on the right. Then I conclude with what has, for me (so far).įirst, let's talk about the NumPad feature itself, for context. TLDR See below for how to do that if you may prefer to cut to the chase, but interested readers may want to understand a few things first, like what I mean by the Numberpad feature, and the problem that may prompt folks to seek how to disable it, as well as other solutions that I found had been proposed (even before I wrote this post) but also did not work.

Others later proposed various ways to try to remove it permanently, but those don't seem to work, either. Removing the numberpad driver (NOT the touchpad's driver) from Windows Device Manager seemed at first the best way, but it proved to be temporary. In this post, I discuss ways to try to do it. Do you have a modern Asus laptop with the NumberPad (orNumPad) feature (a virtual numeric keypad embedded within the touchpad)? You may know there's a button to enable/disable it on demand, but do you find find it coming on when you brush that by mistake? Are you annoyed that you can't find how to 'permanently' disable it?
