ToggleKeys

  1. Term used to describe a computer keyboard key that has one or more function. For example, the caps lock key, num lock key, and scroll lock key are all examples of togglekeys. In the case of the caps lock key, a user could either enable or disable the keyboard to type in all uppercase.

  2. This is also a Microsoft Windows accessibility feature that causes windows to generate a tone or beep each time you press the Caps lock, Num lock, or scroll lock keys on the keyboard. This can be helpful for users who mistakenly press these keys while typing.

    Tip: This feature can be enabled and disabled through the Accessibility Options or Ease of Access Center in the Windows Control Panel.
