CAPSLOCK Notifier

CAPSLOCK Notifier is a straightforward piece of software whose only purpose is to notify you whenever you press the Caps Lock key, accidentally or not.

It can be handled by all types of users, even the ones with little or no experience in software applications, thanks to its overall simplicity.

The installation procedure takes little time to finish. Once started, CAPSLOCK Notifier brings up a small window with a plain and simple layout, representing the interface.

Two buttons provide quick access to starting and stopping the service. When CAPSLOCK Notifier is active, it minimizes to the system tray area and pops up a small balloon from the bottom right corner of the screen every time you press Caps Lock.

There are no other options available through this utility. Its biggest disadvantage is that it does not feature sound notifications, which would make more sense when you're quickly typing without looking at the monitor.

Considering the limited features supplied by the tool, installing CAPSLOCK Notifier is pretty complicated, such as the mandatory preinstall of .NET Framework. On top of that, the program is not exactly free, as you might unwillingly install third-party application without realizing it if you're not careful.

CAPSLOCK Notifier is very prompt and uses a low amount of CPU and RAM, so it does not affect the overall performance of the computer. Since it minimizes to the system tray area, it does not interrupt normal user activity either. CAPSLOCK Notifier serves its purpose, but some feature improvements are welcomed.
