Hi,

 

Normally it's the f5 key - see the image below.

i have 17" Envy, F5 works ok to turn on keyboard lights.

How can I tell it to ALWAYS have the lighted keyboard ON?

 

I use the laptop always plugged-in, so don't need to worry about battery going dead.

 

I would like the laptop to boot-up with the lighted keyboard ON.

 

Tx for any comments.

I guess no one knows how to change the default, to keep the keyboard lit.
