Press the windows key or Press AltF1 or touch the hot corner to enter the Activities overview.
Type to search System Settings.
Press Enter or click on the System Settings icon.
Under System click on Universal Access.
Under Mouse Keys click on Off. Now Mouse Keys are set to On.
Make sure that Num Lock is turned off. You will now be able to
move the mouse pointer using the keypad.
The keypad is a set of numerical buttons on your keyboard, usually arranged
into a square grid. If you have a keyboard without a keypad (such as a laptop
keyboard), you may need to hold down the function (Fn)
key and use certain other keys on your keyboard as a keypad.
Each number on the keypad corresponds to a direction. For example, pressing
8 will move the pointer upwards and pressing 2 will move
it downwards. Press the 5 key to click once with the mouse, or
quickly press it twice to double-click. Most keyboards have a special key which
allows you to right-click; it is often near to the spacebar.
If you want to use the keypad to type numbers while Mouse Keys is enabled, turn
Num Lock on. The mouse cannot be controlled with the keypad when
Num Lock is turned on, though.
The normal number keys, in a line at the top of the keyboard, will not
control the mouse pointer. Only the keypad number keys can be used.
