    under windows OS you need to run DH53F124.exe
    I'm not an Acer employee.

    Hello I have done the upgrade and it still turns off the keyboard lights after 30 seconds when connected to the AC.

    Hey guys, I just got and Nitro 5(AN515-53) and have the same bios update available. I was just wondering how big of a risk updating the bios is? I always hear that you can brick the PC but is this due to user error or something that  can just randomly occur? If it is the latter, how often does this happen? 1%, 10%, 50%...?? Thanks for any help.

    Just downgrade to 1.19 if you want "working" backlit KB
