[VBScript] send Numblock Key as Keystroke


Question

As the fellows at the FloatMobileAgent Forum are quite - well - not helping.

I don't find a way to send the Numbers on the Keypad. Even on the msdn page i don't find it.

Shell.SendKeys ""{UP}""

Something like that, only that i want to send Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 6 (for example)

Edit:

Edited some obscurities pixels pointed out.

Do you mean the keypad numbers? Or the actual NumLock key?

If you mean the keypad numbers, I must ask why you need to use those rather than the ones above the keyboard.

My point is that instead of looking at the actual key on the keyboard that you want pressed, you need to look at it as the actual string you want sent.

Yeah my bad. Of course I mean the keypad numbers. And i want to use these, cause with the normal keys the keystroke has no effect.

To explain more. I want to remotely control musikCube with my SE T610 using FMA. It supports a global hotkey feature meaning that you can control it with some keystrokes regardless where you are in windows. These Keystrokes are.

The functions are as follows:

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 5 : Pause and Resume

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 0 : Stop

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 4 : Previous Track

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 6 : Next Track

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 8 : Volume Up

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 2 : Volume Down

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 7 : Previous Artist

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 9 : Next Artist

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 1 : Previous Album from Current Artist

Ctrl + Alt + Keypad 3 : Next Album from Current Artist

    • Apple Intelligence can now analyze your iPhone's screen, offers live translation by Aditya Tiwari Alongside iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, watchOS 26, tvOS 26, and new AirPods features, Apple announced some stuff for Apple Intelligence at WWDC 2025. A highlight of the latest announcements is that developers can now access Apple's on-device foundation models, which power Apple Intelligence, to enhance their apps. Apple's Foundation Models framework enables developers to create AI-powered features and experiences that can also operate offline. "The framework has native support for Swift, so app developers can easily access the Apple Intelligence model with as few as three lines of code," Apple said, adding that the access is offered free of charge. Apple has introduced several new features for the general public. For starters, the new Live Translation feature works across Messages, FaceTime, and phone calls, using "Apple-built models that run entirely on device" to translate messages from one language to another. In other words, the feature can translate written text in Messages into the recipient's preferred language and display translated live captions while still hearing the speaker’s voice in FaceTime. Meanwhile, the translated text is spoken aloud on regular phone calls throughout the conversation. Visual Intelligence can now access a user's iPhone screen to answer questions and take action on the content being viewed on the screen across apps. Users can ask ChatGPT for details on specific objects and what they're looking at on their screen to learn more. They can also search Google, Etsy, and other supported apps to find similar images and products. Visual Intelligence can also identify events displayed on the screen and suggest adding them to the user's calendar. The updated Genmoji feature lets users mix emojis and combine them with text descriptions to generate something new. They can change expressions and adjust personal attributes, such as hairstyle, to match the latest look when making Genmojis inspired by their friends and family members. Image Playground has been updated to support new styles generated by ChatGPT, such as oil paintings or vector art. When users have a specific idea in mind, they can use the "Any Style" option. Apple Intelligence also powers the Shortcuts app, using on-device processing or Private Cloud Compute to generate responses that feed into the rest of the shortcut while maintaining privacy. For instance, Apple explained that "a student can build a shortcut that uses the Apple Intelligence model to compare an audio transcription of a class lecture to the notes they took, and add any key points they may have missed." Apple is integrating its AI features into more apps with subsequent OS updates. The Wallet app can now summarize order tracking details from emails sent by merchants and delivery carriers. It lets users check their full order details, progress notifications, and other details. In Messages, Apple Intelligence can suggest where a poll might come in handy, and users can create backgrounds to fit their chats using Image Playground. The new Apple Intelligence features are available for testing on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro through the Apple Developer Program. By the end of the year, Apple's AI suite will support more languages, including Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Portuguese (Portugal), Swedish, Turkish, Chinese (traditional), and Vietnamese. You can read about Apple Intelligence in the official announcement post on Apple Newsroom.
    • Absolutely. Glass widgets, tabs, docks, Rainmeter, MicaForEveryone (gorgeous full glass explorer windows), etc. some of us never left the glass ecosphere. I actually hope this encourages MS to put those Acrylic/Mica/Glass hooks back into the OS as an option. It doesn't have to be the default, but some of us would love the choice.
    • I had deleted the folder after installing the update and then re-created the inetpub folder. Ran the script today even though the folder exists, it does some minor changes to the permissions and to the order of some.
