Caps lock and Num lock notification on/off toggle

Member Posts: 3 New User
I just purchased my first ever Acer laptop, the PH317-51 Predator Helios 300.
I searched the forum and saw someone post a solution to turn off permanently the "Caps lock and Num lock notification"
I don't want to permanently disable this function, I only want to be able to disable it when I need to (when in gaming, for example).
What to do?

Hi, Predator laptop model PH317-51 keyboard should be having Caps Lock key. You can locate the Caps Lock key as it is left to the alphabet 'A' in your keyboard. That Caps Lock key is a toggle key to enable & disable all alphabetic characters to type in uppercase or lowercase respectively. Similarly, you will be having "Num Lock" key in keyboard. You can locate "Num Lock" key on top of the Numeric Keypad. If you think I've answered your question, please hit the Accept Answer 0

I don't think so. One thing you could try is "gaming mode" software that suppress all notifications when they detect full screen games.Hitman989 said:

There is a toggle key (which is also Fn key F8 on my Swift 3) that allows to turn caps lock / num lock notification on/off, and that also turns retrolighted keyboard on/off. The symbol is a "A" topped by rays...

I've searched a dozen places for the answer for my new Swift 3 on "caps lock indicator" and I think I've found it here. Am I really to believe that the swift folks at Acre did not put a little light indicator someplace on the keyboard! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

Im not aware of any way either those notifications will belong to windows and the drivers themselves and i dont see any issue with it it will not interfere with the games in anyway while gaming the only one i usually hit its caps lock which its the one near the gaming usual run key which its shift apart from that i dont see any reason to even get near num lock at all and Julie78Fr , JonBoy22 we are talking about H300 not swift 3 its a completely different keyboard and unit also this topic its really oldHitman989 said:

For disabling it temporarily, you need to disable Acer Quick Access service. Enable it whenever you want to view those notifications.Trying to do my best here - Your happy Predator owner

Where do I enable it? It does not show when the laptop is turned on but shows the notifications after I open the Acer Quick Access. So how do I make it enabled right when I turn on the laptop?XdxD said:For disabling it temporarily, you need to disable Acer Quick Access service.
