CapsLockViewer — last updated 2026-05-13

The short version

CapsLockViewer doesn't collect, store, transmit, or share any data. It has no network access.

What it actually does

The app reads the state of one keyboard key — Caps Lock — using the standard Windows API GetKeyState. It does not log, record, or transmit your keystrokes. It does not run a keylogger or hook the keyboard.

Local data stored on your machine

• One registry value (unpackaged build only): HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\CapsLockViewer — points at the exe so Windows can launch it at sign-in.
• Two settings keys: FirstRunCompleted and HideWhenOff, stored in HKCU\Software\CapsLockViewer (unpackaged) or ApplicationData.LocalSettings (Microsoft Store install).

That's the full extent of it. Removing the app removes all of the above.

Third parties

None. There are no analytics, telemetry, ads, crash reporters, or external services of any kind.

Source code

The app is open source — every line of behavior described above can be audited at github.com/RemielDev/CapsLockViewer.
