I can't change keyboard backlight timeout on my laptop.(Product Name: PAVILION GAMING 15-DK0013NT)

[Y161T]

Hello.

Firstly , I'm sorry for my English because I'm from Turkey and my country hasn't got a forum site.

I'm buy this laptop last week. I'm love this laptop but I have a problem. My laptop's keyboard backlight timeout is very short and I can't change timeout time. My bios using f.33 and I can't found advanced tab menu. How can I change timeout time. Is there an hp app for keyboard.

Thanks in advance for your help 😄

Welcome to HP Community

I have gone through your Post and would like to help

If the blacklight stays on for only a few seconds, the backlight timeout setting might need configuring in the BIOS.

Note:If there is not a setting for the backlight timing in the BIOS, this behavior might not be supported on the notebook. 

Your BIOS version and screens might vary.

1. Restart the notebook, and then immediately press the F10 repeatedly until the BIOS opens.

2. When the BIOS opens, use the arrow keys to navigate to the Advanced tab.

3. Navigate to Built-in Device Options, and then press Enter.

   

4. In the Built-in Device Options, select Backlit keyboard timeout.

5. Press the spacebar to open the keyboard backlight settings, and then select the timeout setting you want.

   note:

   If you select Never, the backlight remains on which could quickly drain the notebook battery power.

   

The backlight turns off after being turned on

Thank you

Thanks for your answer.

my bios hasn't got any advanced tab. Can I open bios lock for advanced tab?  Or maybe hp has got a  keyboard backlight control app. I found another forum in hp.com but for another laptop's product...

@Y161T I'm afraid the advanced menu is locked/unavailable as designed by HP, changing settings within the same, may render the device unstable, also, as mentioned earlier in bold, the option is not available for your device, if it isn't available on the screen.

I hope that helps!
