I was hitting the 'next' button on the setup for the ATK drivers as you said "next" each time then you said "your keyboard lights should turn on when it's done installing" and it literally turned on right when you said that, thanks for this video. I know it's old, but had a dead battery and dead original HDD for a long time and then finally changed to an SSD and new battery so had to reinstall Windos and have been trying ti figure out the keyboard backlight for a while now, so again, thanks for the video.

Were their other variants of your model? For example the back of my laptop said something like G715J but the models that popped up ended in a Y or a T. After looking at what those variants were then I found that I had the model that ended in a Y because of the specific graphics card, processor, etc. Hopefully this helped.

[@LordMetarex]

Perhaps not the right place to be but I still hope I can find some answers here: I bought the RoG Zephyrus S (GX502GW) but my keyboard backlight seems to have a timer for how long it will stay on when you do not use it. I wish to disable this or “extend” the times. However, this model does not seem to support ATK Package what so ever. Someone else suggested me to install atk from a different model but is that even safe? I hope I can get some answers/suggestions/advice fairly soon since I am literally clueless on what to do.
