Caps Unlocker

Caps Unlocker is a lightweight software application developed specifically for helping you disable your Caps Lock key and prevent it from being accidentally turned on.

You can store the program on pen drives and carry it with you. No settings files are left on the host computer. The configuration data is actually saved on the storage device. You can run it without administrative privileges and access its features by opening the executable file.

You can access the utility via your system tray. A simple click on its icon reveals a set of options. The configuration package is quite minimal so you can decode them in no time.

There’s no support for a help manual but you can manage to set up the dedicated parameters on your own because they look highly intuitive.

Caps Unlocker gives you the possibility to completely disable your Caps Lock key. However, you are given the freedom to override the current settings and switch the key on or off by holding down the Shift key.

A few configuration settings are implemented for helping you unlock the Caps Lock key, run the application at Windows startup, as well as assign custom tray images that are displayed when the Caps Lock is detected as being on or off. You may choose between several preset icons or upload a custom photo from your computer.

What’s more, you can make Caps Unlocker automatically lock the key for a custom time interval (in seconds) and switch back to the unlocking mode when the time is up. Tests have shown that Caps Unlocker carries out a task quickly and without errors. It is not a resource hog so it can be kept running in the background without worrying that it hampers your computer’s performance.

All things considered, Caps Unlocker provides a simple and efficient software solution for helping you automatically change the status of your Caps Lock’s functionality, and can be handled by beginners and professionals alike.
