And I happen to have several French colleagues visiting today at the office. I asked them. Their computers don't have this behavior (Windows 10). CAPS LOCK doesn't auto-cancel when SHIFT is pressed. And they all say they never heard of that being standard. And that Wikipedia page you linked too describes something ELSE: CAPS LOCK affecting non-alphabet keys, which doesn't have anything to do with cancel-CAPS-mode behavior.\n  \n  Tonny\n  \n  – [Tonny](https:\/\/superuser.com\/users\/83250\/tonny \"33,885 reputation\")\n  \n  2022-06-16 12:41:34 +00:00\n  \n  Commented Jun 16, 2022 at 12:41\n\n[Add a comment](https:\/\/superuser.com\/questions\/1726774\/toggle-off-caps-lock-with-shift-key-on-windows-11 \"Use comments to ask for more information or suggest improvements.

And I happen to have several French colleagues visiting today at the office. I asked them. Their computers don't have this behavior (Windows 10). CAPS LOCK doesn't auto-cancel when SHIFT is pressed. And they all say they never heard of that being standard. And that Wikipedia page you linked too describes something ELSE: CAPS LOCK affecting non-alphabet keys, which doesn't have anything to do with cancel-CAPS-mode behavior.

Readable Markdown	2 On my old computer, when `caps-lock` is activated and I press the `shift` key, it disables the caps look. On my new computer under windows 11, when `caps-lock` is activated and I keep the `shift` key pressed, it inserts lowercase letters but when I release it, `caps-lock` remains activated. How to get the old behavior (press `shift` turn off `caps-lock`) on windows 11 Remark: I use french layout where this behavior is suposed to be default <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caps_Lock#Behavior> asked Jun 16, 2022 at 9:59 [![Yukulélé's user avatar](https://i.sstatic.net/zSd9Y.jpg?s=64)](https://superuser.com/users/127974/yukul%C3%A9l%C3%A9) 3 5 It's done just like under, or at least close to, win 10. - Open "Settings" and navigate as follows - Time & language - Typing - Advanced keyboard settings - Input language hot keys". This should open a window called "Text Services and Input Languages" it should contain an "Advanced Key Settings" section where you can switch between the two modes of how to turn off Caps Lock. I find that a lot more comfortable as well and is usually one of the first things I change when setting up my profile after a fresh windows installation.

That is most likely a function of BIOS in the old computer and is not standard behavior on any computer I have (or have had). So you will need to use the Caps Lock key to both toggle Caps ON and then OFF. - This is quite normal. answered Jun 16, 2022 at 11:33 3 ## You must [log in](https://superuser.com/users/login?ssrc=question_page&returnurl=https%3A%2F%2Fsuperuser.com%2Fquestions%2F1726774) to answer this question.
