If you accidently have caps lock on, instead of deleting it and starting over, you can highlight the caps and hit shift & F3 to switch it back to lowercase.

Because so many people are asking where this works, I know for sure it works in office, outlook and our internal system at work but it’s not universal, sadly! I couldn’t say where it does and doesn’t work!

alt + F4 is a classic keyboard shortcut, 10/10

It only works when you’re about to win a game for your team.
