Create the following file, then double-click it to import it into the registry.
caps-ctrl-swap.reg:
You can also navigate to that part of the registry and add that value.REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout] "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,1d,00,3a,00,3a,00,1d,00,00,00,00,00
The only problem with this is that when someone else using the computer needs to use the control key, they use the default one, not realizing that they are swapped. This is followed by confusion, questions, explanations, weird looks, etc...
So, another option is to change only the caps-lock key, leaving you with 2 control keys on the left-hand side of the keyboard. That registry value looks like this:
REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout] "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,1d,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00
