Caps Lock indicator on screen Windows 7

has no light to determine when the tab is active or inactive.  Says that an indicator would show on the lower right of the screen.  Don't see it.  Any help?
Thank you

Hi chareaux,

First be sure you have the latest version of the software you download for your keyboard:

http://www.Microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=MK

Once installed, you can proceed as follows:

> Click Start
> keyboard in the search field type
> double click on keyboard options
> on the settings tab of the key, go to the list of key parameters
> Locate and double-click CAPS LOCK
> in the menu, you should see where it says "State LOCK SHIFT display on screen.
> Click on the checkbox, then click on finish

I hope this helps!

    How to keep the caps lock indicator on screen without hitting the key each time to check its position? Thank you, Nick

    This indicator is provided by the keyboard device driver.  The driver included with the keyboards that Microsoft sells won't stay on the screen.  You can search your favorite search engine for "software keyboard indicator", there are some online that keeps the current keys shown in the taskbar near the clock.

  • Caps lock indicator does not.

    I've recently been messing around in the msconfig and services.msc trying to streamline things. Also, I went to the back office database, but switched to an aero theme. Now the screen to jump to the top of the indicator for the caps lock no longer works. I have no idea what the status of the caps lock shift is without him, because there is none on the keyboard. How do I get this on?

    Am having this problem also.  I know the rocker, but prefer the screen caps lock indicator.  How can I activate the indicator of the screen?

    Hello

    I think that the message of contextual text for the Caps Lock key is an element that is installed by the computer manufacturer. See the computer documentation or ask the computer manufacturer about this.

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you for using Windows 7

  • Caps lock indicator no longer appears when power

    original title: Caps lock indicator

    Hi I have an acer aspire 5750 running win 7

    Normally when I press caps lock, shift, lock number, volume, buttons, I get and indicator on the screen to show if caps lock shift is enabled or disabled.
    But now I do not get this anymore.
    I feel like maybe I did the removal of some startup programs, also I forgot who I deleted startup so I don't know what to do.
    Please answer.
    Thank you.

    SOLVED! I contacted ACER and they told me to install the launch Manager.

    I got this program already, but as I suspected that I removed this program from the start up.
    That's what they said:
    "
    To download the Launch Manager application for your product, please log on to www.acer.co.uk

     

    and follow the instructions below:

    Click support > Driver download > product family > range > product model number > operating system > Application > download the Launch Manager application for your product.

  • How can I disable the caps lock indicator/notification? -Lenovo Ideapad y700

    Whenever I have press NumLock or CapsLock Maj, a useless and annoying indicator appears. I was extremely frustrated with this indicator, it is often close me out programs in full screen (videos and especially games) just to tell me that I pressed the caps lock button. If possible, I'd love to permanently disable these indicators/notification for caps and numlock.

    The online instructions indicate:

    1. Click Search, and then type Control Panel , and then click the appropriate search results.
    2. Click the icon to display , and then click change display settings on the left panel.
    3. Click on the Advanced settings, and then click the display tab.
      Note: ThinkPad is displayed on the screen tab, should install the Hotkey driver.
    4. Check enable on-screen display.
    5. Under the "NumLock and CapsLock indicator settings" section, look for 'while the digital lock or caps lock is on"section, choose the option 'display the indicator for a few seconds'.
    6. Click apply, and then click OKand click OK to close the window.

      I did not tab display on the screen, and I don't know what is the pilot "Hotkey". I have tried to download a driver related to display the parameters of the Lenovo download page, but that generated an error message. One of my friends suggested that the way to remove this could be through the registry editor, but I am not convinced that I could take without seriously damaging the software in some way.

      Please, if anyone has solutions, suggestions or advice, I would appreciate you sharing! Thank you for reading.

    Uninstall the LenovoUtility. That will remove the notifications.

  • How can I get a caps lock indicator to show on my Aspire E1 571?

    I don't see no indicator to show if caps lock shift or NUMLOCK is on. There is no LED on the keyboard, the function key shows a notification on the screen but no caps or Numlock.

    Thank you

    When I got my Acer Aspire it had Win 8 installed, that I lower leveled for Win 7 64 bit, because he had to with my MCSA curriculum work.
    Initially, I had the same problem could not see when the caps lock was power. After searching the live web including Acer, I found this Driver Dritek so it's live at Acer should be free of virus and others, although this version is newer than the one I have (as below), so if it donesn can't work, you can click on another link and install it... !

    This is the packaged driver I have: LaunchManager_Dritek_5.1.15_W7x86W7x64_A
    The two pilots are free to use... ! Once installed, it should look like this...

  • I have acer laptop. now, it stopped showing the caps lock display on screen

    before I received the symbol for caps lock or caps unlock the screen, but now I was getting that display when I press caps lock. So I am unable to consider whether it's upper case or caps lock unlock

    This isn't a feature in Windows 7.  It is a function created by the PC manufacturer in order to check the manual PC & Acer support website.  The utility is likely to be the same one that puts in place special keys, you have on your keyboard as a WiFi on/off switch.

    I can't tell you what will be the name of the utility that it has been appointed by Acer.  Dell calls this Quickset utility but it would be a surprise if Acer has used the same name.

    Yes.  Go to search programs and files that immediately precedes the Start button and type "toggle" and select "Change how your keyboard works" and select "Activate the ToggleKeys."

    Another way to get there: go to control panel > accessibility > Ease of Access Center > make the keyboard easier to use - then select "activate the ToggleKeys.

  • How to release the CAPS LOCK with Shift in Windows 8

    Older versions such as Windows XP, 7 included an option in the language settings and area extended to release the caps lock with a simple pressure to shift instead of hitting the Caps Lock again.

    I can't find this option in Windows 8 and I regularly hit the CL accidentally. :-(

    Hello

    This option does not seem to exist anymore.
    But there is a method that still does the trick:
    1. Open regedit
    2. Go HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ keyboard layout
    3. In the right pane, modify/add DWORD32 attributes value
    4. Choose the format Hex and enter 10000
    5. Confirm the value, disconnection and it should work!
  • Caps lock indicator does not not in firefox

    just installed firefox last 8 and caps does not show indicator on my asus eee pc 1001px where it should be on the bar spots. When I exit firefox and go to the mail program, it's ok. any body you will suggest a solution. Cheers, ian

    Everything you just mentioned has to do with third party products.  The indicator that see you in your bar tasks is not Windows XP, the browser you are using is not Microsoft.  ;-)

    You must first contact the manufacturer who provided the application of the indicator, then Mozilla (although you will have more luck with the first.)
