CapsUnlock : Supersedes the locking mechanism of the CapsLock key
In depth
A closer look at CapsUnlock
The CapsUnlock application was designed to be a small tool that supersedes the locking mechanism of the CapsLock key and thus prevents the accidental turning on of CapsLock. It runs as a little tray application in the taskbar. The user can select an override option, which allows CapsLock to be switched on and off by holding down the left Shift key while pressing CapsLock. Furthermore CapsUnlock also disables the Insert key. After installing, CapsUnlock resides as an icon in system tray area of the taskbar (next to the clock). You can bring up the menu by right clicking the CapsUnlock icon. You can enable/disable CapsLock, the Insert Key and the CapsLock override function. The menu also allows you to exit CapsUnlock. You can also enable/disable the CapsUnlock function by double clicking on the icon.
