Windows has a feature called 'Toggle Keys'. When the toggle keys feature is enabled your computer emits a beep when the caps lock or num lock keys are pressed, and a different beep when they are pressed a second time to turn them off. It’s a feature I enable on all of my computers. Turn on Toggle Keys in Windows Vista and Windows 7. Keyboard LEDs version 2.7.1.59 shows indicator of Caps, Num and Scroll locks right on your screen. Program works on any desktop and server version of Windows either 32 or 64 bits. Software is tested and compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10. Should work on Win 9x/NT4/2000 except some features. There is no Mac version, yet 🙂.

This article provides a solution to an issue where the Caps Lock key status change triggered by an application in a remote computer isn't synchronized back to the client computer.

Original product version: Windows Server 2012 R2
Original KB number: 3120433

Symptoms

Assume that you connect to a remote computer in a remote desktop session. If an application, such as winword.exe or osk.exe, changes the Caps Lock key status, this change will not be synchronized back to the client computer.

For example, in a remote desktop session, when you open Microsoft Word, type h, turn on Caps Lock by pressing the keyboard, and then type ELLO, the word is hELLO. Then, you press the Enter key. In this situation, the hELLO in Word will be corrected to Hello automatically, and Caps Lock is turned off in the remote desktop session. However, on the client's physical keyboard, the Caps Lock light is still on, and it is still in Caps Lock On status. It is not synced with the remote desktop session Caps Lock key status.

Note

The Word feature that triggers this issue is named correct accidental usage of cAPs LOCK keyin AutoCorrect options.

In a remote desktop session to a Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer, if we do the same steps, the Caps Lock key on the client's physical keyboard also turns to off status, which is synced with the remote desktop session.

Cause

This issue occurs because Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2 use the Remote Desktop Keyboard Device to handle the keyboard inputs in remote desktop sessions.

Resolution

To make the client and the remote desktop session Caps Lock key sync again, you need to minimize the remote desktop session window or click the mouse outside the remote desktop session window, and then click it again.

For Office applications, you can disable the correct accidental usage of cAPs LOCK key in AutoCorrect options to fix the issue. For example, follow these steps for Word 2016.
