Windows 8 - Zero key on numeric key pad doesn't work

Anonymous

I have Windows 8 on a Samsung laptop.

When NUMLOCK is on, all numbers work EXCEPT the zero (0) key.

When pressed, it opens the small 'undo' menu in the top left corner of the screen. It is as though the Function-0 key is stuck.

Any ideas to fix would be appreciated.

My Samsung laptop has a "Fn Lock" key right above the + key. I pressed it and it fixed the issue you describe.

I finally found it after a day or two of dealing with the 0 key menu issue.

THANK YOU!!!!

I suffered for weeks, then the problem miraculously disappeared, then it popped up again.

That "Fn Lock" is an easy one to hit by accident, and with the only thing it seemed affect being the keypad zero key, it was impossible to figure out on my own.
