How can I use my keyboard while in Tablet Mode on my HP Spectre x360 Convertible?

[Myraz]

Hello!

How can I use my keyboard while in Tablet Mode on my HP Spectre x360 Convertible? I connected my laptop to a monitor, and it would be amazing if I can fold my laptop and use it as a keyboard. However, when I fold my laptop, it switches to Tablet Mode and automatically disables the keyboard.

I tried following these steps that were mentioned in an earlier thread that seemed the most successful for others: (1) Go to Device Manager, (2) System devices, (3) Intel Integrated Sensor Solution > Properties > Driver, (4) Disable Device, (5) Reboot. 

However, the "Intel Integrated Sensor Solution" option was not available for me. Is there an alternative option that I can disable?

PS: I also tried changing the Tablet Mode settings and that didn't work.

Thanks for your help 😄

and

When this device automatically switched tablet mode on or off -> Don’t ask me and don’t switch

However, the settings have not been applying to my laptop and when I rotate it, the laptop switches automatically to Tablet Mode.

Do you have any ideas on how I can proceed to apply these settings? (I
