Is there a way to automatically import a sharpkeys file? about sharpkeys HOT 1 OPEN

I would direct you to use the Registry Editor itself. I mean, I may have coded "open SharpKeys with this SKL file preloaded" but I don't remember. I likely didn't because the Registry does a better job of it and you'd have to reboot anyway, making the "preloaded SKL" file misrepresent itself as "this is what is currently remapped."

Since SharpKeys is simply a very custom Registry Editor of sorts, what I've historically done is:

• Set up the keys I want remapped (minimally disabling Caps Lock)
• Export the Key and Value to a REG file
• Merge the REG file on each new machine

The Key is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout
The Value is "Scancode Map" - when you export the key above some other stuff comes with it: you can remove from the REG file since Scancode Map is the part you want to merge in.

The REG for turning off Caps Lock is this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout]
"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00
