Disable the Keyboard with a Keyboard Shortcut in Windows

In this article, we’ll show you how to disable your keyboard with the help of a single button – and, of course, how to re-enable it.

When you open Keyboard Locker, you’ll see a small keyboard icon appear in your system tray.

To lock the keyboard, just press Ctrl+Alt+L from your keyboard.

The icon in the system tray changes to indicate that the keyboard is locked.



Almost all keyboard input is now disabled, including most special keys on media keyboards and caps and num locks. There are a few key combinations that will still work, such as Ctrl+Alt+Delete and Win+L to lock your computer, but those are extremely unlikely for a paw or tiny hand to hit. When you want re-enable keyboard input, simply type in the word “unlock.”


If you want to keyboard locker should start when you start your windows then follow the steps :-

Start Keyboard Locker when Windows starts

If you want Keyboard Locker to start up automatically when you boot your computer, you can create a shortcut to Keyboard Locker in your startup folder.
To do this, click on the Start button, then All Programs. You should be able to find a folder called Startup.

Right click on the folder and click on Explore.

An explorer window will pop up. It may have some other shortcuts in here already (if there are programs in here that you don’t want to start up when Windows boots up, you can remove them here!). In either case, right click on an empty portion of the window and click on New - Shortcut.

Click on the Browse… button and navigate to the location that you saved Keyboard Locker in.

The path will be filled in. Click next.

Give the shortcut a name if you’d like, then click Finish.


You should now see a shortcut to Keyboard Locker in the startup folder. From now on, Keyboard Locker will start running every time you boot up your computer!


If you ever want to stop Keyboard Locker from running at start-up, simply delete it from this folder. It works in all the version of windows including windows 8.
