I have a very hyper young cat. She keeps walking on my laptop keyboard when I'm listening to music or watching videos.  How can I easily lock and unlock the keyboard so it doesn't matter if she walks on it?

hi

remove the mouse that attracts the cat
seriously, to my knowledge, there is no function for that ..
I'm not sure it works, and in my opinion it's not very practical
You have the possibility to uninstall the keyboard from the device manager, the deactivate option is probably grayed out, if not try, otherwise, uninstall the driver, it will have to be reinstalled each time you need to use it
I will try to find if there is a better solution

maybe the software shown here

do not try I check

[edit]

ok so i can't guarantee it's safe
but it works
Once the program is installed there is a warning, and how to unlock the keyboard and mouse are both inactive
press ctrl atl delete
then just press esc when the window is open
