Mac Numeric keypad not working

I have installed Windows 10 via VMWare Fusion 11.5 and the number keys on my Mac keyboard are not working (the ones on the far right of the keyboard) the / * - + work though not the enter key.

Any ideas who to get this up and running?

Hi

try the solution of this post:

Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad - Keypad not functional

The "clear" key on the physical keyboard seems to do the same job... On my Mac keyboard, there's a key labeled clear where the Num Lock key would be on a PC keyboard (above the numpad 7).  That key acts as Num Lock when I press it in a Windows VM.

Yes that works! (though I am sure I tried pressing that key before and it didn't work, must be your magic touch)

Anyway last thing is the ENTER key on the numeric keypad does not work in Windows, any ideas how to get that working?
