Alternative option to turn on AN515-55 because the buttons in section including power button broken
Hi
I am looking for an alternative option to turn on my Acer Nitro 5 AN515-55 laptop, because the buttons in the section including the power button are broken. There should be something under "Fn + ...", but I don't want to turn it off to check, because I need it for work, and for now I can't replace the keyboard. Please help

The only way is not to completely shut down but go to Sleep or Hibernate mode, if you cannot find these options in Start enable them in Power Plan "Choose what closing the lid does" and "Change Settings that are currently unavailable".

If the power button is broken, just don't let the laptop shut down or hibernate. Turn the hibernation off and keep the charger plugged in all the time.
Please remember to include @AnhEZ28 when you want to reply back to my comment so that I can check your response.
Thank you and have a nice day!1 -
@AnhEZ28 is correct, you need to supply power to wake from hibernate mode, only possible with the power button, so either don't shutdown, use sleep mode or just turn of the screen if you cannot use the power button.
