Hi!

I am looking for a really tiny free utility that when launched will just turn off caps lock.

Nothing else.

I have looked a bit on the net and have found nothing yet.

I found this:

But I want something that doesn't take parameters. I upload it, execute it and it turns it off.

Got a solution.

Made a file called caps.vbs and added two lines:

set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys "{CAPSLOCK}"

Hi David,

Would you like to comment on your VBS?


If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

The VBS script only toggles the Caps Lock key. It does not actually specfically turn it off nor does it give the state.

I find it useful because I use PCAnywhere at work (piece of crap software, realvnc.com is better). And there is often confusion with the caps lock key. Sometimes the remote machine has it on and it messes everything up.
