Backlit keyboard is a configuration option when you customize and purchase the computer.
If you purchased the option, it is likely listed on your Order / Confirmation email (if you purchased the computer from HP). The options might also be included on the receipt.
HP ProBook 440 G5 Notebook PC - Customizable
HP Premium Keyboard, full-sized island-style, spill resistant, clickpad with image sensor, non-backlit
HP Premium Keyboard, full-sized island-style, spill resistant, clickpad with image sensor, backlit
Specifications > Keyboards/point device/function keys
Specification | Description |
Keyboard | HP premium keyboard Backlit keyboard (optional) Full-sized island-style Spill resistant |
Personally, I have never seen a computer that has a back-lit keyboard but lacks the key / icon on the keyboard to switch it on / off.
Some business computers have a keyboard timeout control in the BIOS -- but the control to switch the lighting on/off must be marked on the keyboard.
If you ordered the backlit keyboard and did not get it, and if you ordered the computer from HP, Contact your HP Sales department or HP Tech Support.
