Why Is Caps Lock Missing?
If you’re used to typing on a traditional keyboard, you may be wondering where the caps lock key is on your Chromebook. Unlike most keyboards, Chromebooks don’t have a dedicated caps lock key. However, you can still turn caps lock on or off by pressing the shift key twice in quick succession.

Using a Keyboard Shortcut to Turn Caps Lock On or Off
If you’re using a Chromebook, there are two ways to turn Caps Lock on or off: using the menus, or using a keyboard shortcut.
To turn Caps Lock on or off using the menus, first open the Chrome browser. Then, click the three dots in the upper-right corner of the screen to open the menu. Next, click “Settings.”
Scroll down to the “Device” section and click “Keyboard.”
Under “Caps Lock,” use the drop-down menu to select “Off” or “On.”
To turn Caps Lock on or off using a keyboard shortcut, press Alt + Search. (The Search key is where the caps lock key would be on a traditional keyboard.) When Caps Lock is on, you’ll see a light next to the key.

Use Caps Lock on Chromebook Carefully
If you want to type in all caps, be careful not to accidentally turn on Caps Lock. Chromebooks don’t have a physical Caps Lock key, so you’ll need to use a software workaround.
First, open the Settings app by clicking the cog icon in the bottom-right corner of your screen. Then, click “Advanced” at the bottom of the page.
In the Advanced settings menu, find the “Keyboard” section and click “Manage keyboard shortcuts.”
Click “Add new shortcut” at the bottom of the page. In the “Command” field, type “toggle caps lock” (without quotes). Then, assign a keyboard shortcut to this command by clicking in the “Shortcut” field and pressing a desired key combination.
Now when you press your chosen shortcut, it will toggle Caps Lock on or off. Be careful not to use this shortcut accidentally, as it could make it difficult to type properly!
