With Windows 7 onwards computers such as Windows 8, any application can be pinned to the Taskbar. In case you do have a keyboard on which either of the Num Lock, Caps Lock, Scroll Lock or Insert Key does not work, this software can be used as an alternative.

Controlling Scroll Lock, Caps Lock, Num Lock, etc keys can be really easy with this software application, just check or uncheck the appropriate checkbox and the software will do the job irrespective of whether the keys work fine on your physical keyboard or not.
