Any idea why I can't remap any keys in MS Mouse & Keyboard Center? I'm running Windows 10 and using an MS Sculpt keyboard and just updated to the latest version of Mouse & Keyboard Center. It lists Play/Pause, Caps lock, Scroll Lock, Num Lock and the Application Key, but the only options are to enable or disable them.
Using Microsoft Keyboard center, how do I reassign the 0 key on the Sculpt Ergonomic keyboard numberpad to spacebar?
I simply want to remap the 0/insert key on the separate numberpad to spacebar, making it a very useful controller for the Imaginary Teleprompter program. All I find are options to run macro commands. Thank you for your help.

We can be pleased that Msoft isn't undercutting independent programmers!

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/mou...
After downloading and installing it, do the following:
- Using the keyboard that you want to configure, start Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center.
- From the displayed list of key names, select the key you want to reassign.
- In the command list of the key that you want to reassign, select a command.
Thank you and please let me know if I can help you any further.

Key Tweak did the job. Thanks again.

I'll be happy to help you.
I believe that the best way to do that is using a third-party App.
Take a look at this article talking about SharpKeys (Free App) and other ones, I hope it can be helpful:
