Disable Caps Lock Indicator on macOS Sonoma
A feature has been added to macOS Sonoma - the onscreen caps lock indicator.
While i am sure this may be useful for some, for me it is not, is there any way to disable it?

OK maryo10 and others asking, here goes. There is nothing magic about using Terminal for Apple if you follow the steps verbatim and copy and paste the Command exactly as printed from a trusted source.
First you have to be logged on your computer as the Administrator. In other words you need to be logged on and able to make changes by entering your username/admin password.
Here is how to access the Terminal app
Go to Applications/Utilities/Terminal App. Open The Terminal App
Once open Click Return/Enter (you should see your computer name and your user name) Now you are ready to enter the command
Copy and Paste (do not try to write it) the command that yochess posted. Disable Caps Lock Indicator on macOS Sono… - Apple Community The post is the third post I believe.
I will reprint it here but all credit goes to yochees This command has worked perfectly for me. MacBookPro running Sonoma
Make sure you copy and paste exactly as written. No spaces and no deletions.
With Terminal app open and your username showing copy the first line of the command and paste to the Terminal app.
Click Return/Enter and it will ask for your admin password. Enter password and click Return/Enter
First line of command
sudo mkdir -p /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain
Now copy the last two lines of the command and paste to the Terminal app.
Click Return/Enter.
Last two lines of command
sudo /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Add 'redesigned_text_cursor:Enabled' bool false" /Library/Preferences/FeatureFlags/Domain/UIKit.plist
Now restart your computer. All done.
Hope this helps.
How many guys in this discussion has used Parallels Desktop❓
I am in doubt if that pop up has been activated because Sonoma or Parallels.
I have installed one and updated other in the same day.
It has nothing to do with Parallels.

I don't because it doesn't bother me.
Bother me a lot because the pop up has been exactly on the space where I input the datas in our countability system. 😩
I kinda like it. But then I like spinach and Broccoli too.

I also like it. And, you can't beat fresh spinach sautéed in good olive oil and garlic and finished with a bit of sea salt.
No, it doesn't. Not on my Mac anyway. All your suggestion does is turn caps into lower case, which is not what we want!
I did it. But after I finished the WORD that pop up goes back again. 😡😡😡🤣🤣🤣

See Leroy's explanation…
Strange, has never seen this Caps Lock indicator on my MBP 16 M1 Max with Sonoma.
If you click on it, it will go away.
But CAPS LOCK will be disabled.
I need CAPS LOCK ON without pop up on the screen.
I am thinking Apple put that feature in Sonoma because so many people in the world has been complained about a defect with the CAPS LOCK light on the keyboard.
but when you want to use CAPS LOCK the indicator is ver intrusive and in your way.
YUP THAT DID IT FOR ME! THANK YOU YOCHEES! :)
