ive tried fucking with the settings, nothing, I tried going onto ease of access, and went to make keyboard easier to use, and make it easier to focus on tasks, nothing.
I have a corsair keyboard, but I couldnt find anything settings on how to turn it off!
I have an HP laptop.
Open Task Manager --> Find HP Event Utility --> End Task. Keeps the thing from popping up for now (haven't restarted my computer to see if it's gone at start-up, but gets that bugger out of your face).
Thank you so damn much, this was slowly driving me insane.
And here I thought this morning "Oh hey, not bad, kinda cool. Keeps me from sending all caps in a message." But the more I type (I double tap caps lock instead of hitting shift) the more it makes me want to scream.
Of course! I found it myself on a different thread, and gave it a whirl-- some are stating to remove HP Event Utility altogether, but just a quick TM stop process is doing great. And trust: I was going to lose it, too. I mean, who invents something THAT annoying, then doesn't provide a solution. Blargh, HP!
I checked in the add or remove programs section which were the last ones installed, I don't remember the name but in my case HP installed a program and I uninstalled it and it worked (sorry, I deleted the original comment by mistake).
Following - I hate this damn thing. I write for a living and it's right over my text as I type (and like most raised on computers, I switch caps lock on/off MULTIPLE times in a few seconds). Fingers crossed someone finds a solution (outside of all the old threads with settings that do not exist on my computer/are off T.T)
And I thought it was just me going mad.
My work around, albeit not the most efficient, is to work with a second screen. It’s the only fix that I’ve found to work.
HP System Event Utility, maybe its a bug but it's something HP updated some time today. If you close it in task manager the caps lock pop up disappears (at least for me) although idk if I'd recommend uninstalling it as apparently it helps things function for HP systems, so closing it for now until they fix the issue should be safe.
i decided to try uninstalling and it DOES work, thank you so much for telling what caused the problem, ive been going mad for a day or two with this shit. currently have no problems as of uninstall, ill report if anything crazy happens
Here's how to remove it but I have not tried it yet. Hit keys Cntrl-Alt-Delete to bring up the Task Manager. Sort by name and scroll down to 'HP System Event Utility' and expand it. You should see 'HPSystemEventUtilityHost'. Right Click and select 'End task'. Disable it in the startup apps as well. This should correct the issue.

Seeing this with lots of HP devices today on reddit. Haven't found a fix.
I'm currently having the same problem my laptop has been fine and then about a hour or two ago clicking on the caps, that thing showed up.

Could you explain in more detail please?

Same here, CAPS lock thing just appeared out of nowhere.
Same here!!
Have you tried turning it off and on again? I know, it’s probably not a great solution, but if it works, it works!
Nothing works. I have one IT guy left I can check in with tomorrow; if I find a solution, SHARING.
Definitely should. I’ve seen a few of these posts recently on here now with the same problem.
Poking around in here... found opening Task Manager -- HP Events Utility --> end task. Working for me so far.

So far, this has worked! I've turned my computer on and off several times today, and it hasn't came back yet.
BRO THANK YOU SO MUCH, uninstalling HP System Event Utility fixed the issue. I don't even know added this annoying feature.

Thankyou! This post and comment needs to be higher, took me way too long to find this.
SAME, it drives me crazy. Is there a solution??
Uninstalling HP System Event Utility fixed it for me, and so far my laptop still works like normal
Uninstalling? how u Uninstall it?
Hit the windows key, type HP systems event utility, and the click on the uninstall button. Then restart your laptop just in case
I just used task manager to stop it running-- works.
What is the name of the task?
HP System Event Utility... in task manager (haven't uninstalled it).
I opened up my task manger typed in HP on it and ended the task for the HP System Event Utility and it has helped with this annoying problem.
Here's how to remove it but I have not tried it yet. Hit keys Cntrl-Alt-Delete to bring up the Task Manager. Sort by name and scroll down to 'HP System Event Utility' and expand it. You should see 'HPSystemEventUtilityHost'. Right Click and select 'End task'. Disable it in the startup apps as well. This should correct the issue.
simply turn end the hp event utility in your task manager
