Hi Guys,
If I understand your dilemma correctly, you need to set another registry key as desired.
Here's how it works; (Unless you have 3rd Party Keyboard Software Installed)
After Bootup and Before Login, Windows reads the
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators because there
is no user logged on. (0=Off, 2=On)
After Logon, Windows Applies the setting from
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators (0=Off, 2=On)
This setting is stored independantly indside each user profile, and the state from
the Windows Session is saved at logoff. This means if you turn your NumLock on, a
value of 2 is written at logoff, and NumLock will be toggled on at next login.
Hope this helps.
