App to display status of Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a wireless keyboard powered by batteries.  As such, there have reduced the number of indicator lights to one, the power level.  I need an app I can run that will tell me what the status of the Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock keys are.  I can check the Caps Lock one fairly easily by typing in the Search field in the Start menu and see if the letters are upper or lower case.  However, I can't think of a way to check the other 2 keys without some kind of app that does it.

 

 

I tried Googling some search terms but all the hits I found were for API and C code to check the status of the keys.  No app I can run to do it.  Can anyone recommend such a utility I can run in Windows 7.  Freeware, of course.  :D  Thanks!

Thanks!  The first one does what I need.  Not the best way :D but it works well enough that I don't need to try the others out.

Actually, I just now discovered by accidentally pressing my Caps Lock key that there is a barely visible until it illuminates light!  :D  The other Locks don't do this.  They should, though!  :angry:
