Many modern laptops have keys that are seldom used, creating an opportunity for users to optimize their keyboard layout. Keys like the Copilot, Scroll Lock, and Caps Lock may serve little purpose for most users. In Windows 10 and 11, key remapping can be easily done to reclaim these unused spaces. Using a tool like SharpKeys allows for straightforward changes at the OS level, enabling users to turn redundant keys into useful shortcuts, such as changing the Insert key to Print Screen, enhancing personalized keyboard utility.
The Copilot key on many new laptops is a great example of hype over help. In 2025, how many of us still use Scroll Lock or Caps Lock?
It's easy to remap keys in Windows 10 or 11 to optimize your keyboard layout. For example, the number pad can be transformed into a media control center.
SharpKeys is a GUI-based utility that can be used to remap keys in Windows at the OS level, facilitating changes like transforming the Insert key into Print Screen.
To remap keys using SharpKeys, select the key to remap from the left column and choose the new function from the right column before saving to the Registry.
