Using game trainers on a laptop without numlock or numpad

Question

How can I use pc game trainers on a laptop without numpad and without a fn key, because most trainers require you to have numlock keys?

Answer 1

Due to the unavailability of numpad keys on some laptops, trainers are difficult to use properly, and most people end up using keyboard re-mappers which messes up stuff with their registry, and some even recommend plugging in external keyboards.

So I figured this out recently for Windows 7.

Click on your start menu, type in keyboard. Click on On-Screen Keyboard, the virtual keyboard now opens.

Next, click on numlock which is on the bottom right, then the numlock keys now appear.

Downside is you have to always minimize the game screen in order to use this.

Hope people find this useful.

Answer 2

I would suggest a program such as autohotkey, which allows you to create your own custom keyboard shortcuts, and bind them to any key, key combination, or key sequence.

The benefit of this is that you can enable or disable the shortcuts at will, and you can use the shortcuts even when playing full screen games.
