Surely theres's a way to disable the annoying caps lock popup?
I have a Samsung Series 9 A01US that I clean installed Windows 7 Home on. Then I installed the required drivers, etc ... and it all works very smoothly, except for one annoying thing:
the keyboard backlight requires a program called "Easy Settings". Normally I don't use bloatware ... and this laptop for being as expensive as it was, has a ton of it. But I wanted the keyboard backlight.
So after chatting to a samsung chat rep, she informed me that there was no way to turn the annoying "Caps lock on!" "caps lock off!" popup that displays every time I press the caps lock key. The only way to disable it is to uninstall the easy setting program, which also controls the keyboard backlight.
This seems nonsensical: the caps lock key has a blue LED light that shows whenever caps lock is on. Why would I need a popup? what's worse is that it isn't even a small, non-intrusive popup. It's a somewhat large, graphical pop up. And the only way to get rid of it is to remove samsung's "easy settings" program, which also controls the keyboard backlight ...
which I think is completely ridiculous. So it's either be stuck with this pointless pop up or lose my keyboard backlight ... I searched on google, but it wasn't really helpful.
This is especially annoying when i'm typing papers; although it only stays on the screen for a second, it's still pretty distracting and annoying.
So, I was wondering if anyone could help me, at least if anyone could tell me how to disable the popup, or at least if I uninstall easy settings, how to get the backlight. I don't think it's fair that I need to choose when I bought this laptop and one of the features comes at an annoying price. It doesn't make sense that they wouldn't give an option to turn the popup off. I've attached a screenshot of it ...
any ideas? thank you very much for your help.
