Perfect except for one detail: When you press Shift on your keyboard, this software will not take it into account, so when you're using the virtual keyboard just to remind you where your keys are, it's less practical for special characters. You have to press the shift button with your mouse.

On-screen keyboards for people with limited hand mobility

If you cannot use a physical keyboard, the built-in Windows on-screen keyboard is usually the first thing you find, and often the last one anybody tells you about. Between it and full AAC systems costing thousands, there is a whole category most people never discover. This list collects what is actually out there for typing without a physical keyboard on a desktop computer: free tools, paid ones, and a few built for eye tracking or switch access. I have tried to note who each one is for, because "on-screen keyboard" covers products that solve very different problems. Disclosure: I build one of the products in this space. Everything here is listed on merit, including the ones that compete with mine.

Be careful what you paste into a terminal. Check what a command installs before running it.

What is Free Virtual Keyboard?

Free Virtual Keyboard is a free, lightweight, multilingual and finger friendly virtual keyboard.

Free Virtual Keyboard works on any Windows based UMPC with a passive touchscreen (Ultra-mobile PC, Tablet PC and Panel PC). If you spend a lot of time responding to e-mail or jotting down notes on your mobile computer and find your hardware keyboard awkward or too small, a screen software keyboard may be just the improvement you've been seeking. This handy keyboard has keys large enough to be typed with the fingertips.

Also Free Virtual Keyboard allows people with mobility impairments to type data by using a pointing device. Change size, color and transparency of keyboard on the computer screen

You can change size, color and transparency of keyboard with one click at any time. In full-screen mode virtual keyboard automatically resizes to fit the width of the screen when invoked. This means it works in both landscape and portrait orientation, something other keyboard does not do. Auto-repeat function

The autorepeat function (any key held down to repeat same character continuously) is automatic. All relevant keys would auto-repeat when pressed continuously. Run it from your portable USB flash drive

Free Virtual Keyboard is a totally portable application, meaning that you can put it on any USB stick and run it directly from there. In this way, your interactive keyboard will always be with you. The settings are stored in the FreeVK.ini file located in the program installation folder. If it's impossible, settings are stored in the registry.
