Disable CAPS LOCK in Windows 8

wg1995 · 30. Dec 2015, 11:25 PM

I would like a program that will disable the CAP LOCK key in Windows 8.1 instead of forcing me to edit the registry.

I've got fat fingers and a smallish keyboard.

If such a program exists, it would only edit the registry anyhow. And it couldn't be simpler than "Download Keyboard Mappings Registry Tweaks" from here: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windo...windows-vista/

from same site as above

it would be easiest to download the reg file then use them to disable/enable as you want. No need for a program, just keep the reg files in a folder somewhere

I think I said same thing as above, >.> didn't realize that's what he meant until I posted
