Caps/Scroll/Num Lock indicators

    I've now got my laptop from PC Specialist. Very happy with it so far - although the keyboard can be awkward due to the squeeze to get the number pad on as well, a few incorrect key strokes!

    However, one thing that is really irking me is that there is no indication of caps, scroll or num lock.

    This machine is running Windows 10.

    Is there an option within Win10 that I can enable in order to see what state these locks are in?

    :confused:

    Did they drop it from Win7? So I have to go with a non windows app for this functionality?

    I don't believe this was ever a standard feature in windows... some manufacturers would have it installed I believe. I'm not 100% certain on this however. No harm going 3rd party either.

    Is that you who wrote this? YT video was voiced by someone with a very irish accent.

    Nice app. I disabled everything xcept for the tray indicators. Prefect for what I want.


    Thanks.
