Remap Capslock in Windows with AutoHotkey
Probably the easiest way to remap the Capslock key in Windows is to use AutoHotkey. I have an AutoHotkey script set to run when my machine starts up that remaps Capslock to Escape. All it contains is this:
Capslock::Esc
If you want to remap Capslock to Ctrl instead, just replace Esc with Ctrl.
No registry hacking required.
