I'm not sure if there is a num lock key or how to access it if that would make the difference. My number pad doesn't work in Windows but does in OS X.

Install the Focus Highlight addon for NVDA which makes it easier to see what object currently has each of NVDA’s different focus targets.

Open up your virtual machine and test out your new insert key.

Next, go to the 'Simple Modifications' tab to map an unused key to the insert key.

Go back to the Karabiner Elements program and run through the Keyboard Setup Assistant to find your computer's keyboard.

While the program is running, go to System Preferences => Security and Privacy.

Run through the installation set-up and open the Karabiner Elements program - NOT the Karabiner EventViewer program.

You can find this information under the Apple logo => About this Mac. Make sure you pick the version that matches your Mac operating system.

Download the Karabiner Elements program to your Mac - NOT on your virtual machine.

However, there is an alternate open source program called Karabiner Elements that is a powerful and stable keyboard customizer that should work if SharpKeys doesn't.

Reset the virtual machine before testing the new mapped keys.įor some newer Mac machines with touch bars, SharpKeys may not be the best solution.

In the right column, choose the 'Special: Insert' key to map the actual key to the virtual key.

Examples of this include: left or right alt key, or the left or right control key. Note: You can choose any keyboard key to map, but it makes sense to use a key that is duplicated on your keyboard so you do not lose any functionality. That key will be highlighted on the left column.

Or just find the key you want to replace on the list manually.

Click the 'Type Key' button and press the key you want to replace.

Run the SharpKeys program and click the 'Add' button.

Open your virtual machine program and download and install SharpKeys.

Included in the application is a list of common keyboard keys and a Type Key feature to automatically recognize most keyboard keys. SharpKeys is a utility that manages a Registry key that allows Windows to remap one key to any other key. One option to remap an unused key to the missing insert key is by using an open source program called SharpKeys. If you are going to be using Windows screen readers a lot on your Mac, this is probably the best option. This option is more expensive, but also more reliable. There are many external keyboards you can plugin or that use Bluetooth to connect to your Mac. Use an external keyboard that has an insert key. Before trying any of the methods below, you may want to configure NVDA to use 'Laptop' keyboard layout in the NVDA menu (NVDA+n) => Preferences => Keyboard Settings since the desktop layout relies on many keys which do not exist on some Mac keyboards (depending on your computer and/or keyboard model).
