As you wrote your question: No, you can't do this. How could a sketch running on the Arduino make the computer transfer keyboard input, if there is no program for this running on the computer?the busybee– the busybee2019-12-03 07:19:26 +00:00Commented Dec 3, 2019 at 7:19

I read this question and commented it earlier today. Did you delete it and ask again with the "no program" addition?Juraj– Juraj ♦2019-12-03 08:20:57 +00:00Commented Dec 3, 2019 at 8:20

@Juraj, you are correct in your thinking ... i have also seen this same question earlier ... i commented about using Processing ... now the OP apparently wants to use a keyboard on a laptop that is shut down ... loljsotola– jsotola2019-12-03 08:31:06 +00:00Commented Dec 3, 2019 at 8:31

@asaf, perhaps you could use a PS2 keyboard that is directly connected to the arduinojsotola– jsotola2019-12-03 08:33:08 +00:00Commented Dec 3, 2019 at 8:33

```
like so
``` -
add language identifier to highlight code
```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. arduino-uno), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
