Insert key on Aspire A715-74G

How do I use the Insert key under Windows 10 on the Aspire A715-74G?

I have tried : 

• Fn- Insert/Delete
• Shift - Insert/Delete
• Ctrl - Fn - Insert/Delete

None of them work. If I press the Insert/Delete key without any other key, it works as the Delete key. But I can not get Insert to work at all.

In ms word?

Hi,
Ins key works when you switch off "NumLk" key, you need to press Shift+0( zero in your number pad).

TY so much! That worked, but its weird that there is also an insert/delete button that basically does nothing. I had not seen the 0/ins key.

No problem, if you press Del button it will delete the text, if you press Shift+Fn+Del/Ins buttons together it will insert the link.

Hello, I realize this is an old post however this isn't working for me. When I turn my numlk key off and use shift+0 (num key pad) it pastes whatever I copied last. I have an older acer ES575. Any other suggestions?
