    There is no need to purchase anything to do this.
    Windows has two on screen keyboards - osk.exe and tabtip.exe

    The first was designed as part of the accessibility features.
    The second one should automatically pop up in tablet mode when you click on a textbox.
    It has several variations with more or less keys taking up different amounts of screen space

    See this similar thread. https://www.accessforums.net/showthread.php?t=71999 I provided some screenshots in post #8
