About Since Windows 8, Microsoft has been building a modern virtual input method for touch-based devices inspired by smartphone conventions. Unfortunately, as with many parts of Windows, legacy components continue to linger in the recesses of the operating system. One such component is the legacy OSK, an XP-era on-screen keyboard meant for mice, not fingers. This can be an annoyance when working with some touch-based devices that default to the legacy OSK, so why not get rid of it? You could go from this... .. To this! Did you know? The Windows on-screen keyboard can be triggered any time by sending Win + Ctrl + O ! How to Use Compatible with Windows 8, 10, and 11 ReplaceOSK is comprised of two components: ReplaceOSK , and TabTipProxy . Using TabTipProxy is optional, but strongly recommended. TabTipProxy will be used by default if a suitable .NET Runtime is available on the host PC (most installations of Windows should include this by default). As of v2.3, if no .NET compiler can be found, ReplaceOSK will automatically download the latest precompiled TabTipProxy binary right from this repo. To Install: 1. Download the latest version of ReplaceOSK from releases. 2. Run ReplaceOSK.bat . To Uninstall: 1. Run ReplaceOSK.bat again and it'll undo all changes to your system. To Update: 1. Run ReplaceOSK.bat to uninstall previous versions (new versions are backwards-compatible!) 2.
