XPS 13 Keyboard NumLock

I do think I am late to this game BUT what are workarounds for the XPS 13 keyboard not having a numlock option?

I rarely use my laptop but I am traveling a lot right now and this has become a serious inconvenience.

Not sure that there is some "official" or "proper way" to deal with that but you can try to use AutoHotKey which allow to remap default behavior when pressing certain keys or key combinations.

If it’s that big an inconvenience, consider buying a USB 10-key pad like this one: USB Numeric Keypad, Jelly Comb Portable Slim Mini Number Pad for Laptop Desktop Computer PC, Full Size 19 Key, Big Print Letters - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E8TTWZ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_nc0KAbH8EJHTX

Not sure if this will work for you, but works on my XPS 15 9570.

Hold down Fn, and press 789 for 789, UIO for 456, JKL for 123, M for 0.
You can probably figure out the other keys if you need them.
