How can I turn off light of MiPad 2 capacitive buttons? (WINDOWS)

[Martin Fóka]

Hi guys,

capacitive back-lit buttons are driving me crazy.
Could you help me turn the light of backlit home keys off?

I would be grateful if you could help me.

Sorry to say that I never found a way to do that. Love to know this too.

I did clean install and now buttons doesn’t light. 🙂

How could I do the clean intall?
1. enter BIOS
2. erase disk
3. install windows 10 from usb
4. install the drivers – where can I find the drivers?

What are the disadvantages of reinstalling windows?
Could Chris try it first?

[Martin Fóka]

This method doesn’t work. I think that I will have to do the clean install.

SOLVED:
You can turn off capacitive buttons of MiPad 2 (Windows).
You just have to uninstall a driver.

But, which one?

[Martin Fóka]

There are two ways of doing that.

1. Clean install (Windows 10) + do not update:
Device manager -> Human Interface Devices -> I2C HID Device

2. Uninstall:
Device manager -> Human Interface Devices -> *HID Focal Tech

*I do not recall the driver name. It is called something like HID Focal Tech
If you will give me the screenshot of the Human Interface Devices I can tell you which driver you should uninstall.

That did it, thanks! It’s HID Focal tech touch and after disabling it, the entire touchscreen stops working, but after a reboot touch works, but without the annoying lights!
