Hi guys I have a small question,
I'm using a Hp envy x360 for studying and I always asked myself if I can turn on my envy while its folded for tablet use. Because the keyboard is deactivated I always have to fold the laptop back to start it and then fold it a second time back to use ist as an tablet. If you guys know a way how I could start it beside the power button please let me know.
