Use of a num pad keyboard

AnthonyR1 · Mar 14, 2015

I just bought a num pad keyboard (20 keys). I can use it correctly on OS X but once, I m on Windows (windows seven), only the signs are recognized, the numbers are not. How can I set it up to be able to use the functions on Windows.

Thank you.

I am actually using Parallels Desktop 10, and that menu is different from what I can see. No coherence menu.
