WHY did they put the CAPS LOCK right next to the letter “A”??

On my old keyboards I removed the pesky thing; but this laptop is not gonna let me do THAT!

WHY did they put the CAPS LOCK right next to the letter “A”??

I forgot to add that i had already remapped the Capslock to ctrl+c (copy), and Esc to ctrl+v (paste), and Numlock to Esc. The middle mouse button is ctrl+x (cut). And since on this kb they placed Print Screen next to a normal sized BackSpace, that was remapped to BackSpace since i kept hitting the Print Screen key. I have a separate utility for screen shots. The delete key was also moved from where i was used to it, so i remapped ScrollLock to Delete.

I use AutoHotKe y to do this, adding the following to a script:

NumLock::Esc

CapsLock::^c

Esc::^v

mbutton::^x

PrintScreen::backspace

Scrolllock::delete

Ask for more, like

#+1::Run C:\Program Files (x86)\BPBible\bpbible.exe

#U::Run C:\Windows\System32\appwiz.cpl

#!W::Run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wuapp.exe

#!C::Run control.exe

If you run any of these in the Run command (Win key + R) they should launch as well.

Bless God for His many-fold grace.

Edit. what i meant by the run command was the actual address, as C:\Windows\System32\appwiz.cpl (add/remove progs).

%windir% can also be a used for C:\Windows
