Answer 1

The problem i was facing was to check the terms and condition agreement.
Firstly, I used tab button to select
Then i used to ' + ' to check mark
After that enter.
Hopefully it will work on all devices

Answer 2

Hi, please use <tab> 3 times and use <enter> to make the next work. The keyboard would work even if no mouse.

After the setup the computer should recognize your mouse
