Is it possible to turn on Num lock on at Windows startup for our Windows devices via SCCM or Intune? If it is possible, how to achieve this?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Yes, it's possible. You can try below methods:

    1,You could create a custom configuration profile with below OMA-URI in Intune:

    "./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/Control Panel/Keyboard/InitialKeyboardIndicators"

    Datatype: Integer with value 2

    2,Or you could use Intune/SCCM/Group policy to deploy below registry key to the client to have a try:

    HKEY_USERS.Default\Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators, and the value is 2 (set it to 0 to set NumLock OFF, set it to 2 to set NumLock ON).

    For more information, please refer to:

    Add a Registry Key to Windows 11 Using Intune

    Enable/Disable Numlock at Windows Startup

    Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!

    Best regards,

    Simon
