# Enable Virtual Keyboard on Windows devices

This Custom Payload will help the IT Admins to enable virtual keyboard (or Tablet mode) on the managed Windows 10 and above devices where the device is set in Single App Mode and touch screen keyboard is the only input method.

## Step 1: Create the Custom Payload

Copy the XML snippet below to a text editor like notepad++ or to any text editor.

```markup
<Replace>
  <CmdID>COMMAND_ID</CmdID>
  <Item>
    <Target>
      <LocURI>./Device/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/TextInput/AllowInputPanel</LocURI>
    </Target>
    <Meta><Format xmlns="syncml:metinf">int</Format></Meta>
    <Data>1</Data>
  </Item>
</Replace>
```

## Step 2: Add Custom Settings to Device Profile

Use our document [here](/v1/docs/custom-settings-csp-for-windows-10) to add the custom settings to the device profile and once the profile is updated, the configuration will be pushed to all managed devices in that profile.

Notes
