Disable the Caps, Num and Scroll lock keys when needed

If you are anything like me, you probably end up pressing the caps lock key in the least appropriate moments. NumLocker can help you avoid this.

NumLocker is a small, straightforward and efficient program that prevents Caps lock, Num lock and Scroll lock keys from accidentally being pressed and used when they are not wanted.

Installation, set-up and usage of NumLocker couldn’t be simpler: the program unobtrusively sits in your system tray and is managed via the menu that opens when you right-click on the icon. There is no user interface to speak of, but with a program as basic as NumLocker, that’s really not a problem.

If you are used to pressing the Caps lock key to get single capital letters, say at the beginning of a proper noun, NumLocker could take a little getting used to as it completely disables the function of the Caps lock, Num lock and Scroll lock keys. You can, of course, re-enable these functions in a mouseclick.

NumLocker is a simple, small tool that prevents you from accidentally pressing the Caps lock, Num lock and Scroll lock keys.

    In theory it's good but it fails to open and I can't access any menu to adjust settings on my Windows 10 laptop

    Documentation says it can "Start with Windows", but it doesn't and there is no switch or checkbox available in the setup wizard that enables such. So More
