Disable the Caps/Num Lock Indicator

So I have this REALLY annoying indicator and I cannot figure out how to turn off. He appeared just today after my keyboard locked out of the blue. I have not installed new drivers in more than a week or 2. It is also on a desktop computer assembled by hand with no preinstalled software.

I don't know what is. I use a Logitech G19 keyboard with 8.50 drivers LGS and I see no indicator in its parameters (point set is not installed or is - it a process). The control panel is out of no help as its parameters of immobilized the Num Key for 5 seconds does not work and also the neutralization of him does not.

Hi, elegant,

To the left of the keyboard above the SHIFT key, press Caps Lock.  This should stop the message.

  • caps & num lock indication on the screen or through KEYBOARD

    How the caps lock and numlock status indication on the screen or via the keyboard LIGHTS when using windows 8?

    Hi Chris,

    When you press the caps lock or num lock keys in the keyboard, you'll be able to see the lights come on indicating that the CAP/NUM lock is on. Similarly, you will also see a pop-up notification, and then disappear when you turn on or off the CAPE/NUM LOCK key.

    If you are unable to see these indications, please get back to us with the make and model of the computer so that we can tell the exact steps to check this information on your computer.

  • Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?

    Is it possible to disable the caps lock shift key on a laptop?  I am running Windows 7 64 bit on a Lenovo laptop
    Thank you

    I understand that you have found some suggestions on editing the registry - they aren't so bad. If you don't want to download all of the files that allow you to disable the LOCKING of the capital LETTERS, you can create it by yourself:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type notepad , and then press enter
    2. Paste to Notepad:

      Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
      "Scancode Map" = hex: 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 02, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 3A, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00

    3. File > record under...
      • Select to Save as: all files
      • Enter the file name : disable_caps_lock.reg
      • Click Save
    4. Right-click on the created file > merge
    5. Restart your system

    In case you want to turn CAPS LOCK on again, you must remove this registry entry, so you must do the following:

    1. Press the Windows key + R > type regedit and press enter
    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
    3. Right click on the Card of Scancode > delete
    4. Restart your system

    I guess that it is perhaps the only way to turn off the CAPS LOCK.

    In case you still don't want to do this, Windows 7 offers something different to disable the LOCKING of the upper CASE. You can turn the ToggleKeys, then you will hear a beep when you press CAPS LOCK. To do this follow these steps:

    1. Press Start > Control Panel > access >easy access Center > make the keyboard easier to use
    2. Check the box to enable the ToggleKeys

    This is because your phone has been hacked to unlock illegally. Update caused it to relock the initial carrier. Only the carrier so that it is locked can authorize to release.

  • 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.

    You shouldn't need to disable the power management software, but simply adjust to where it is not longer Hibernate.  Take a look at this document, which should help.

  • How to remove caps/num lock notifications

    Whenever I hit caps or NumLock on my Elitebook 8460w get a notification at the bottom right of my screen that its been toggled.

    How can I get rid of these?

    Thank you.

    Hello, I know you posted a long time ago, but I can't leave a message on the internet only unanswered. I have a HP Elitebook 85XXp and I had the problem of locking caps also. What I did I went to the process in the Task Manager and stopped QLB Controller. If you type msconfig in windows and go to startup or services, you can finish / uncheck the QLC controller service. It worked for me, hope this helps future inhabitants of the internet. Had to make an account just to post.

  • Dell laptop "on the keyboard of the screen" NUM LOCK - typing Unicode ASCII does not

    We use passwords that require the inclusion of the ASCII Unicode for connections.  In the past, computers Dell laptops with Windows 7 ultimate (64 bit) using the keyboard (OSK) screen provided us the ability to ASCII Unicode using the numeric keypad and the combination of the Alt key and the numeric value of type.  However, the new Dell laptop computer running Windows 7 that have the ability to access the OSK to connection but the Alt + Unicode does not work.  What is the reference for this?

    Hello Alberto,.

    Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you.

    I understand that you are unable to type ASCII Unicode characters via the keypad on the new Dell laptop. After having past the post and check online this seems to be a question of character that is specific to mapping laptop manufacturers. Different laptop have different character mapping.

    I would like that you press 'key Fn + Ctrl key + key LShift' simultaneously to enable and disable the entry of special characters.

    Based on the combination above does not help, I would ask you to contact Dell Support for more information on the mapping of characters to the new laptop. Dell support will also be able to provide you with the exact combination, you will need to type the ASCII Unicode characters.

    You can also post the query on the Dell Forums:

  • HP HDX 16 (model X 16-1360 EV) cannot start, and led (CAPS & NUM Lock) light flashes once.

    Hello

    I own a HP HDX 16.

    The laptop model is X 16-1360 EV (product number: NW746EA #B1A) and it has Windows 7 64 - bit installed on it.

    Since yesterday it will not start and I get the error code flashing led "Failure CPU" (1 flashes each sequence, every 2-3 seconds) and nothing appears on the screen, he died.

    Last week, it wouldn't boot at all, no lights no all of the screen system was dead. I replaced the AC adapter and it starts normally. I worked with her for 2-3 days, and it worked perfectly, until the above has happened. Any information about how I can fix this would be appreciated. I have no device connected on the laptop.

    I'm adept at dismantling and reassembling, and I did it several times to clean accumulations of dust and dirt that prevents good cooling and caused stops due to overheat. I checked the various modules of RAM from another laptop HP just to see if it was a memory problem, but still the same thing occurred.

    Thank you in advance.

    It's my first HP Vista 64 bit PC.  Is there a num/caps/scroll lock indicator in the system tray.  I guess that's because the wireless bought with the PC keyboard does not include a locking indicator.  For some reason, there are two icons in the status system for shift caps lock, NumLock and scroll bar.  Is this normal?  If not can someone tell me how to remove duplicate class?

    Thank you.

    Well now it displays correctly.  I did remove the ton of bloatware that's installed on the machine.  Not sure what was causing the problem, but its correct operation now so I'll call it resolved.
