How to default NumLock to ON for Windows 8 logon screen / NumLock is diabled/OFF on Windows 8 logon screen

Everytime i want to logon to Windows 8, the Keyboard NumLock is disabled, which is very uncomfortable when using a PIN code to logon or having a numeric password.
I was looking for a way how to enable NumLock as default Setting for Windows Logon Screen.

How i fixed id:

Go to the registry folder:
HKEY_USERS\Default\Control Panel\Keyboard

Set the value of "InitialKeyboardIndicators" to 2.
