OMEN Laptop - 17-cb1097nr
Microsoft Windows 11

I get that I can use the On Screen KeyBoard  for the Scroll Lock Key, but is there a key combo to get it done?

Hi @CWBillow1,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be glad to help you! 

 

For your OMEN Laptop - 17-cb1097nr, there isn't a direct keyboard shortcut for enabling or disabling Scroll Lock like there is for some other functions. However, if you need to use Scroll Lock and don't have a dedicated Scroll Lock key, you can use the On-Screen Keyboard (OSK) as you mentioned. Here’s how you can access it and use it to toggle Scroll Lock:

 

Accessing the On-Screen Keyboard:

Open the On-Screen Keyboard:

  • Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
  • Type osk and press Enter or click OK.

Using the On-Screen Keyboard:

  • Once the On-Screen Keyboard opens, you should see a virtual keyboard displayed on your screen.
  • Click on the "Options" key (if available) on the OSK to ensure that Scroll Lock is enabled on the virtual keyboard.
  • Locate the Scroll Lock key on the OSK and click it to toggle Scroll Lock on or off.

Alternative Ways to Toggle Scroll Lock:

Using External Keyboards:

  • If you frequently need to use Scroll Lock, consider using an external keyboard with a dedicated Scroll Lock key.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance
