They stop a key from being pressed (if it's the stopper I'm thinking of; I can't see the pic).  Gamers like to use them on the Win key so accidently pressing it doesn't kick them out of their game.  I've never used one, but I would imagine you just pop the cap and place it over the switch.

Thanks itlnstln.  I tried that but it didn't work. =(

I placed the key stopper on the switch itself unless it has to snap into place or something.



Edit: where's number keyboard expert when you need one. =P

Remove the key next to it then I'm sure you will figure this out.
