Luckily Windows has a universal shortcut, Shift + F10, which does exactly the same thing. However, many modern keyboards don’t have this. Since many Magic Keyboards and MacBooks don’t have number pads, you can also use these keyboard key alternatives to right click with the keyboard.
You can activate Mouse Keys quickly and easily by using Option-Command-F5 or, if you have a Mac with a Touch ID button, press it three times in succession. As you might expect, it doesn’t work in quite the same way as the Windows take on the idea, but it works well.
Not to be left out, macOS also has an accessibility feature that allows you to use the pointer via keyboard keys. Under the advanced Control Panel settings for Mouse Keys, you can fine tune how the pointer behaves and right click with the keyboard if you want. With “-” acting as the right mouse button. Now, “/”, “*” and “-” act as the mouse buttons. Once you activate Mouse Keys you can move the cursor around using the numerical keypad buttons.
