Hello, I want to disable the annoying and absurd on screen caps lock and num lock notification. I've looked into it and I've found that there are three ways this can be triggered with some application from a software driver. this is not the case as i have only the pre installed software applications. updated to the latest version of windows 11 home, 23H2 and latest drivers versions from win updater. in the display driver in my case the properties of the device do not show the tab where i could disable it this is not an option ease of access: here i also don't see the option to disable on screen caps lock notifications. I'm not using the on screen keyboard and the notifications keep appearing how can i disable this? its really annoying as i most of my work requires me to write emails and use caps lock and every time i do the on screen notification covers up my screen for a second but i cant find a way to disable it. Thank You.

I actually love you, thank you so much I was going insane!

yeah, it’s insanely annoying to have a giant lock on my screen. i use caps lock as a key bind in game and its super distracting. microsoft please give us an option to take this off. i don’t need caps lock notifications in general and i especially don’t need it during my games. thanks

I am SUPER THANKFUL to have found this! It has been driving me insane all day long. Tried all the "fixes" that google suggested and NOTHING helped. This made it stop. Thanks so much for the peace of mind!!

Hello,

I want to disable the annoying and absurd on screen caps lock and num lock notification.

I've looked into it and I've found that there are three ways this can be triggered

with some application from a software driver. this is not the case as i have only the pre installed software applications. updated to the latest version of windows 11 home, 23H2 and latest drivers versions from win updater.
in the display driver in my case the properties of the device do not show the tab where i could disable it this is not an option
ease of access: here i also don't see the option to disable on screen caps lock notifications.

I'm not using the on screen keyboard and the notifications keep appearing how can i disable this?

its really annoying as i most of my work requires me to write emails and use caps lock and every time i do the on screen notification covers up my screen for a second but i cant find a way to disable it.

Thank You.

hey guys. last night i talked to someone from Microsoft support; it seems directly related to HP. if you go into your task manager and end the HP system event utility task, it will stop. i would also disable it in startup. I'm gonna try contacting hp and telling them about it, the agent told me it seemed like a bug.

Uninstall the HP System Event Utility on Settings > Apps > Installed Apps, this will fix it permanently.
