    Hi,

    I have an ACER Aspire 5 A515-51G laptop. I wonder if it is possible to change the backlight of the keyboard so that it is lit constantly or extend the time of the backlight?

    Thanks

    they work, but they only turn the backlight on or off, and I would like to extend the backlight, after 2 seconds it goes out and for me it's not enough

    With the power supply connected, it goes out? Power options set correctly?
    Well, I do not know if there is no sensor in it that turns off the keyboard when it is bright?

    as a rule, I work without a power supply on the pen, I looked in the power settings, but I did not find anything that could be strictly responsible for the keyboard backlight

    On the battery itself, it will turn off the backlight - it's normal. Check operation with power supply.

    Hell let me tell you I have the same thing with Acer Swift 3. I didn't think it could be so annoying. I did not take it into account when buying. Everything was fine on my previous Lenovo Y50-70. It shone as much as I wanted and until I turned off .. and now; / Did you find any solution from this trash?

    Hey, I wrote with the Acer team in the chat and they told me to update the bios to the latest version and look for the glowing keyboard option in its settings. Unfortunately it wasn't. The guy said that these bios are being updated successively and that probably the next update will contain the option to change this snag.
