Hi @raiyanyo21,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

If the keyboard backlight is not working on your HP PC, here are the most effective steps to troubleshoot it:

1. Confirm Your Keyboard Supports Backlighting

Not all HP desktop keyboards have backlight functionality. Please check:

• The model number of your keyboard.
• Look for a backlight icon (usually on the F5, F4, or Spacebar key).
• If there’s no icon, it may not support backlighting.

2. Use the Correct Key Combination

If your keyboard supports backlighting:

• Try pressing Fn + F5, Fn + F4, or Fn + Spacebar.
• Press the key multiple times to cycle through brightness levels.

Some keyboards require the Fn key to activate the backlight toggle.

3. Check Windows Settings

1. Go to Settings > Devices > Typing.
2. Look for Keyboard backlight settings (if available).
3. Adjust brightness or timeout settings.

4. Update Keyboard Drivers

1. Open Device Manager (Windows + X > Device Manager).
2. Expand Keyboards.
3. Right-click your keyboard and choose Update driver.
4. Restart your PC.

I hope this helps.

Take care, and have an amazing day!
