Need a one-click shortcut for windows on-screen keyboard.

[johnnyb58]

I only have use of one arm right now and using the windows on-screen keyboard, but the shortcut requires 2 hands open up. Back in the 80s I could write little batch files to do theses things, but I’ve been out of practice for the past 30 years and don’t know how to do it in Win 10.

I would like to make an icon to click-on to start the keyboard and want to know if anybody can tell me how

I'm sure one of those ways will help you.

I do not see it on the initial page that loads on the link John sent, but to open it, you could make a shortcut to C:\Windows\System32\osk.exe

I can open it up by pressing Crt+Win+O, but I need 2 hands to reach the 'O' key. I use a mouse for everything now.

right click on the onscreen keyboard and select pin to taskbar.
