It might seem complicated, but it’s really fairly simple once you start working with it. For example, if you wanted to disable the caps lock key and then change scroll lock into a caps lock key: 00000000 00000000 03000000 00003A00 3A004600 00000000 You can map between multiple keys by incrementing the “ 02” and then adding another of the colorful bold blocks in the middle.

The bolded “ 0000” is the key we actually want Windows to map TO, which in this case is nothing, or 0.(It really represents the length of the data, but whatever)

The “ 02” in bold represents how many keys you are going to re-map plus 1.The first 16 zeros are just there to waste space.Here’s the format of the binary data in the Scancode Map key, with the important parts in bold: 00000000 00000000 02000000 00003A00 00000000 To do this manually, you’d open up regedit.exe and browse down to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout Windows doesn’t have a default setting to allow for disabling the key, so what we have to do is re-map the key to something non-existent so as to completely disable it. Once you are done, click the Write to Registry button and you’ll be told to log off or reboot for the changes to take effect. You can click the Add button to bring up the Add New Key Mapping dialog, where you can either select the keys to map from the lists, or just click the Type Key button and press the key manually (which we find much more intuitive). Note that we’ve tested this in Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, and Vista, and it works fine in all of them in our testing. This is where SharpKeys comes into the picture: It’s a small utility that will let you easily map one key to another key easily, or even turn the key off, without having to enter the registry at all.įor instance, we used the key mapping to just turn off my Caps Lock key, since we never use it. But there should be an easier way, right? If you are tired of the way certain keys on your system work, such as the Caps Lock key, you can re-map them to function as a different key by using a registry hack (see below).
