If you’ve ever hit Caps Lock by accident and watched an entire paragraph of furious uppercase text appear, there’s a quick fix built into Windows that most users never notice: you can set Windows to turn Caps Lock off when you press the Shift key. This is a small, low‑risk tweak that removes one...

Hi I just got through setting everything up in build 9926. Most of the problems I had with the previous build have been fixed. My keyboard lights work, but the Caps Lock key doesn't work exactly as it should. The Caps Lock key does turn on Caps Lock, but it won't turn it off again. To turn it...
