Locked

Product: hp nOTEBOOK 15
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

i have a new HP Notebook.  It has a number pad.  Everytime I use it I have to press the number lock.  Is there a way to keep it permanently locked so I can do my accounting steps without resetting the number lock when I go to type text in a spreadsheet. 

Thanks for your help.
