@Radu9, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

If your notebook computer has a backlit keyboard, press the F5 or F4 (some models) key on the keyboard to turn the light on or off. It might be necessary to press the fn (function) key at the same time.

If the backlight icon  is not on the F5 key, look for the backlit keyboard key on the row of function keys.

Refer to the document HP Notebook PCs - Using the Backlit Keyboard for additional help.

 

Keep me posted.
