To turn off Caps Lock on a Chromebook, you can use the following methods:

  • Press Alt + Search keys together again. This toggles Caps Lock off if it is currently on. The Search key is the one with the magnifying glass icon, usually where Caps Lock would be on other keyboards
  • Alternatively, pressing the Shift key will also disable Caps Lock on a Chromebook

If you want a more traditional Caps Lock key behavior (one key to toggle Caps Lock on and off), you can remap the Search key to act as Caps Lock:

  1. Open Settings by clicking the time in the lower-right corner and then the gear icon.
  2. Go to Device > Keyboard.
  3. Find the dropdown next to the Search key and select Caps Lock.
  4. Now, pressing the Search key will toggle Caps Lock on and off like a normal Caps Lock key

In summary, the quickest way to turn off Caps Lock is pressing Alt + Search again or pressing Shift. For a permanent single-key toggle, remap the Search key to Caps Lock in the keyboard settings.
