Personally, I dislike a lot about the "new" UI for Visual Studio 2012. Richard has come up with a way to eliminate one of the biggest GOOFS that the Visual Studio team infllicted on us in their attempt to make VS fit in with Microsoft's new "Metro Everything" approach. I don't actually blame the VS team, I'm sure they were told that they had to do it.

There are two ways to implement Richard's solution:

1. Use RegEdit to create a registry key (the method used in Richard's blog post)

   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\General\SuppressUppercaseConversion
   REG_DWORD value: 1

2. Use PowerShell to create a registry key (suggested by Alexander Beletsky)

   Set-ItemProperty -Path HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\General -Name SuppressUppercaseConversion -Type DWord -Value 1

I used the PowerShell method (open PowerShell, paste in the command, & it's done). Kt worked flawlessly.

Here's a before & after:

 I'd like to give a BIG thank you to Richard for sharing this with everyone.
