How to force the activation of the Shift Lock Switch with a BoolValue?

Good! I really have no idea how to force the Shift Lock Switch to activate without the keys, I want to force it to activate with a value. What I want to do is make the Shift Lock Switch activate with a Value of boolValue, but I don’t know how to do it and how to force it to activate.

I believe that you could change the value from a script and then put this inside a local script in StarterPlayerScripts:

local val = val

val.Changed:Connect(function()
    Game.StarterPlayer.EnableMouseLockOption = val.Value
end)

(Sorry if this doesn’t work)
