There is a functionality in the Windows Operating Systems that is called the Virtual Keyboard.The virtual keyboard as the name suggests is an virtual keyboard which comes up on the PC and you can use it to input text, or even fill forms with the virtual keyboard.You key in the characters in the text field/ word processor or online forms by clicking the characters of the virtual keyboard.

So, how do we bring the virtual keyboard a.k.a On screen keyboard??

START  -> RUN -> osk -> OK.

This will bring the On screen keyboard on the Screen and you can key in.

Advanatages of OSK:

1.OSK is increasingly used in Online form filling , especially that requires authorizations and personal information like passwords, bank info and so on.

2.OSK can be used when your keyboard isn’t functioning.

Disadvantages:

I wouldn’t call them disadvantages but they are not just suitable and apt for long typing jobs.You cannot use it ideally for typing a blog post, or an article.You can of course use them for short and simple jobs like Form filling, e-mail replying and so on.
