    Oh, yes… to input specific characters or disable caps lock, one needs to hack the registry with hex codes…

    Stunning Windows goes still as user-friendly.

    Edit: If you were lacking a reason to try modern Linux user Interfaces, try GNOME desktop with PaperWM. It works great on my 40’ display…

      You can use PowerToys for Windows to (among other things) disable caps lock. I’m no fan of Microsoft, but they do provide PowerToys for free and there is a lot of useful stuff in it.

        PowerToys is the sole reason I somewhat get along with binbows on my work laptop.
