App creator here:

StickShift is a Windows application I created to improve efficiency while using Window by removing hand repositioning from the home row to the arrow keys and back every time you need to navigate and edit text.

With Stick Shift, hold down the CapsLock key and have the arrow keys directly under your right hand.

I'll be happy to answer any questions and will gladly receive any suggestions!

Looks neat tbh. I'm an Emacs guy, but I'd consider using this. Does it require admin to run? It says it operates on "the driver level" so I assume so. No access to admin privileges for me at the moment, but I'd like to try it out later.

It hooks system-level keyboard events - not sure if that's an admin level action on Windows...

Thanks for the question!

Heads up, when I click your trial link I get a character mess.
