Automatic keyboard backlit

[Johnsix95]

I want to set up automatic keyboard backlit on my HP laptop.  My keyboard is still lighting after turn on backlit (Fn+F5) and  I must manually turn off backlit if I want to leave the room for a longer time or I am doing other activity. Advanced settings in BIOS is missing. Is any other way how to make my keyboard backlit turning off automaticly? Or is there some software for HP that can do it? 

Thanks for help.

@Johnsix95,

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community! I understand you are having issues with the keyboard backlit not working as it's suppose to on your HP notebook. Don't worry as I have a few suggestions which should help you resolve this issue.

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Have you recently made any changes on the PC before the issue started?

Did it happen after a recent software update or Windows update?

Have you tried to update the Bios?

In the meantime, let's try these steps here: 

Let's start off by updating the Bios and Chipset drivers on your PC from our HP support website, using this link.

Also, download and install HP support assistant on your PC. It should automatically download and install the latest updates and drivers for your PC.

Refer this link to know how to use HP support assistant.

Once done, restart the computer and then check how it goes.

If the issue persists, I would suggest here is to try these steps here: 

1. Click the Start button, then click Run.   

2. In the Run window, next to Open, type MSCONFIG.   

3. Press the ENTER key.   

4. In the System Configuration Utility window, click the Startup tab.   

5. On the Startup tab, under Startup Item, ensure that there is a check in the HKserv checkbox.   
    
   NOTE: If HKserv is missing, reinstall the Hot-Key Utility application by Clicking here
