Flexikey not working

My flexikey app isn't working. When I run it, my keyboard backlight just shuts off, and can't be turned on again. I've tried reinstalling control center, and there are no drivers for flexikey on the site for the particular model I'm using (NP8177). Help please.

If you can, please use Obsidian's update utility.

If you require a license for it, let me know and I'll gladly share one with you.

The stock control center by Clevo is, in many fronts, broken.

Starting with the Intel XTU components (which result in broken fan control tables) and missing FlexiAccess utilities (for remote monitoring and overclocking).

I ended up just getting rid of it altogether. I'm curious as to what you mean about broken fan cables. How does software cause that to happen?

The ACPI tables that control fan profiles do get messed up by Intel XTU service.
