Dell Display and Peripheral Manager

Question

Hello,  Does anybody know if there is a registry setting to turn off the Caps lock notification in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager? I know this can be disabled in the GUI under Settings > General > Keyboard Lock Key but we need to deploy the software to a large number of devices. I have checked the registry and I cannot see a registry key for it.

To disable the caps lock prompt the following entry must be set to false:

"keyboard_lock_key" : false

This is located in the following directories:
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\Dell\Dell Display and Peripheral Manager\GlobalSetting.json

C:\ProgramData\Dell\Dell Display and Peripheral Manager\DDPM.Configs.json

If keyboard lock key is set on and off the binary value changes here:

HKEY_USERS\x-x-x-xx\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\UserAssist\{CEBFF5CD-ACE2-4F4F-9178-9926F41749EA}\Count\{6Q809377-6NS0-444O-8957-N3773S02200R}\Qryy\Qryy Qvfcynl naq Crevcureny Znantre\QQCZ.rkr

It may also appear here:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\UserAssist\{CEBFF5CD-ACE2-4F4F-9178-9926F41749EA}\Count\{6Q809377-6NS0-444O-8957-N3773S02200R}\Qryy\Qryy Qvfcynl naq Crevcureny Znantre\QQCZ.rkr
