What software should I use to change the colors of my backlight keyboard?

[callmeastree]

Hello
My grand dad (a geek) gifted me a laptop and the backlight keyboard won't change colors/turn off. I tried the old combination I used on linux (example: "Fn" + "*" to turn it off).
It was running under linux but i had it change to windows because I'm not really knowledgeable about computers.
During my researches online, I only found solutions to fix it under linux and not under windows10.
Is there any software i should download to make it work again?
I have a Clevo N151ZU Pro
Thank you
(I am sorry for my english, it is not my first language)

Hello, It's great to hear that your grandad passed down his tech-savvy interests to you! Let's tackle the issue with your backlight keyboard on your Clevo laptop running Windows 10. Here's what you can try to get the colors to change or turn off:

Steps to Control Backlight Keyboard on Windows 10:​

1. Built-in Keyboard Shortcuts:
   • Many laptops have dedicated function keys to control the backlighting. Look for keys with a light bulb or "sun" icon. It's often a combination with the "Function" (Fn) key. Try pressing Fn + the backlight key (if labeled).
   []Manufacturer's Software:
   • Clevo laptops might have pre-installed software for managing keyboard lighting. Check the manufacturer's website for your laptop model's dedicated software.
   []Windows Mobility Center:
   • Open the Windows Mobility Center by pressing Win + X, then press Mobility Center. Look for an option to adjust keyboard backlight settings.
   []Device Settings:
   • Go to Settings > Devices > Typing. Some laptops have keyboard settings here, including backlight options.
   []BIOS Settings:
   • Restart your laptop and access the BIOS settings by repeatedly pressing a key like Delete, F2, or F10 while the system is booting. Inside the BIOS, you might find options related to keyboard backlighting.
   []Third-Party Apps:
   • There are third-party apps like "Aurora Keyboard" or "Alienware Command Center" that might offer more advanced control over backlighting. Check the Clevo support site or tech forums for specific software recommendations for your model.
   []Update Keyboard Drivers:
   • Ensure your keyboard drivers are up to date. Go to Device Manager, find the keyboard section, right-click, and select Update Driver.
2. Audio Control:
   • Strangely, some laptops control backlight through audio software. Check any pre-installed audio control software for keyboard backlight settings.
