最近我写了一篇关于如何使用键盘右键单击(how to right-click using your keyboard)的文章，许多人发现它很有用。但是，我不断收到更多问题，问我他们如何使用键盘控制鼠标光标。(mouse cursor)如果您的笔记本电脑上的触摸板死机或您的鼠标在桌面上停止工作，那么有必要了解如何移动鼠标光标(mouse cursor)，直到您的系统恢复正常。
显然，不使用鼠标导航的第一步是使用箭头键并按Enter和Tab在项目之间移动和打开项目。ALT + TAB还允许您在程序之间切换并返回桌面。ALT + F4将允许您关闭程序。
例如，当您在桌面上时，按TAB键会将您移动到“开始(Start)”按钮，然后您可以按空格键(Spacebar)或Enter 键(Enter)打开“开始菜单(Start Menu)” 。如果您一直按 Tab，它会将您移至固定在任务栏上的项目，然后最终移至通知区域(notification area)，然后再返回桌面图标。然后，您可以使用箭头键(arrow keys)四处移动。
现在您可以稍微导航一下，让我们谈谈使用键盘控制鼠标。
选项 1：鼠标键(Option 1: MouseKeys)
值得庆幸的是， Windows(Windows)中内置了一项称为鼠标键(Mouse Keys)的功能，可让您使用键盘上的数字小键盘在屏幕上移动鼠标。它甚至允许您模拟右键单击、双击和左键单击。在台式机上，您将使用键盘最右侧的小键盘。在笔记本电脑上，您可能必须启用Num Lock 或(Num Lock or press)在按下数字之前按住功能键(function key)。
要在Windows中启用鼠标键(Mouse Keys)，请打开控制面板并单击(Control Panel and click)轻松访问(Ease of Access)。
在“探索所有设置(Explore all settings)”下方，您将看到一个名为 “使鼠标更易于使用”(Make the mouse easier to use)的链接。
现在单击打开鼠标键(Turn on Mouse Keys)框。这将在Windows中启用鼠标键(Mouse Keys)。您还可以通过同时按ALT + Left SHIFT + NUM LOCK鼠标键(Mouse Keys)，而无需通过控制面板(Control Panel)。请注意，您必须使用左侧的SHIFT 键(SHIFT key)，因为右侧的 SHIFT 键不起作用。
单击设置鼠标键(Set up Mouse Keys)以配置所有选项和设置。如果您发现它太慢或太快，您可以调整指针速度，您还可以选中一个框以使用(pointer speed)CTRL 和 SHIFT(CTRL and SHIFT)分别使光标移动得更快或更慢。
另一个需要注意的主要设置在Other Settings下。默认情况下，鼠标键(Mouse Keys)仅在NUM LOCK为On时起作用。如果您愿意，可以将其更改为关闭。(Off)如果正在使用鼠标键(Mouse Keys)，您应该会在系统托盘(system tray)中看到一个小的鼠标图标(mouse icon)，否则鼠标上方会显示一个红色的 X。
如果您有数字小键盘，以下是用于运行Mouse Keys的控件。您现在应该能够仅使用键盘移动光标。为了单击某物，您首先按/、–或*以选择鼠标上的相应按钮。然后按 5 以单击或右键单击，具体取决于您选择的按钮。
要双击某物，您必须选择鼠标左键(left mouse button)(/)，然后按 + (plus)。您还可以通过首先将鼠标光标(mouse cursor)移到项目上然后按0开始拖放来拖放项目。（句号）(. (period))放弃它。

选项 2：NeatMouse(Option 2: NeatMouse)
到目前为止，控制鼠标的最佳选择是鼠标键(Mouse Keys)，因为您无需安装任何东西，它几乎可以让您完全控制鼠标。但是，如果由于某种原因您不喜欢鼠标键或无法使其工作，您可以下载并安装名为(Mouse Keys)NeatMouse的第三方程序。
我已经在我的工具列表中提到了这个程序来调整你的鼠标，所以我不会在这里详细介绍它。它基本上与鼠标键(Mouse Keys)完全一样，只是您可以根据需要将热键更改为其他内容。它还具有用于滚动的键盘修饰符，而(keyboard modifier)鼠标键(Mouse Keys)则没有。
因此，下次您在没有鼠标的情况下被卡住时，无需担心！您可以使用键盘上的数字键轻松控制鼠标指针。(mouse pointer)如果您在使用鼠标键(Mouse Keys)时遇到任何问题，请随时发表评论。享受！
How to Move Your Mouse Cursor without a Mouse
Recently I wrote an аrticle on how to right-click using your keyboard and many people found it useful. However, I kept getting more questions asking me how they could control the mouse cursor using the keyboard. If your touchpad dies on your laptop or your mouse stops working on your desktop, it’s worth knowing how to move the mouse cursor around until you can get your system back to normal.
Obviously, the first step to navigating without a mouse is using the arrow keys and pressing Enter and Tab to move between and open items. ALT + TAB will also allow you to switch between programs and get back to the desktop. ALT + F4 will allow you to close programs.
For example, when you’re on the desktop, pressing TAB will move you to the Start button where you can then press Spacebar or Enter to open the Start Menu. If you keep pressing tab, it will move you to the items pinned to the taskbar and then finally over to the notification area before going back to the desktop icons. You can then use the arrow keys to move around.
Now that you can navigate around a bit, let’s talk about controlling the mouse with the keyboard.
Option 1: MouseKeys
Thankfully, there is a feature built into Windows called Mouse Keys that allow you to use the numeric keypad on your keyboard to move your mouse around the screen. It even allow you to simulate a right-click, double-click and left-click. On desktops, you will use the keypad at the far right of the keyboard. On laptops, you will probably have to enable Num Lock or press and hold the function key before pressing the numbers.
To enable Mouse Keys in Windows, open the Control Panel and click on Ease of Access.
Towards the bottom under Explore all settings, you will see a link called Make the mouse easier to use.
Now click on the Turn on Mouse Keys box. This will enable Mouse Keys in Windows. You can also enable Mouse Keys without having to go through the Control Panel by pressing ALT + Left SHIFT + NUM LOCK at the same time. Note that you have to use the left SHIFT key as the right one will not work.
Click on Set up Mouse Keys to configure all the options and settings. You can adjust the pointer speed if you find it too slow or fast and you can also check a box to use CTRL and SHIFT to make the cursor move faster or slower, respectively.
The other main setting to note is under Other Settings. By default, Mouse Keys will work only when NUM LOCK is On. You can change this to Off if you like. If Mouse Keys is being used, you should see a small little mouse icon in the system tray, otherwise it will have a red X over the mouse.
Here are the controls, provided that you have a numeric keypad, to run Mouse Keys. You should now be able to move the cursor around with just the keyboard. In order to click on something, you first press /, –, or * to select the appropriate button on the mouse. Then press 5 to either click or right-click depending on which button you chose.
To double-click on something, you have to select the left mouse button (/) and then press the + (plus) sign. You can also drag and drop items by first moving the mouse cursor over the item and then pressing 0 to start the drag and . (period) to drop it.
- 2 = Move Down
- 8 = Move Up
- 4 = Move Left
- 6 = Move Right
- 7 = Move Diagonally Top Left
- 9 = Move Diagonally Top Right
- 1 = Move Diagonally Bottom Left
- 3 = Move Diagonally Bottom Right
- 5 = Once Button Selected, will
- / = Select Left Mouse Button
- – = Select Right Mouse Button
- * = Select Both Buttons
Option 2: NeatMouse
By far the best option for controlling your mouse is Mouse Keys since you don’t have to install anything and it pretty much lets you fully control the mouse. However, if for some reason you don’t like Mouse Keys or can’t get it to work, you can download and install a third-party program called NeatMouse.
I’ve already mentioned this program in my list of tools to tweak your mouse, so I won’t go into much detail here about it. It basically works exactly like Mouse Keys except that you can change the hotkeys to something else if you like. It also has a keyboard modifier for scrolling, which Mouse Keys does not have.
So the next time you are stuck without a mouse, no need to worry! You can easily control your mouse pointer using the number keys on your keyboard. If you are having any issues using Mouse Keys, feel free to post a comment. Enjoy!
