ASUS ROG G834JZR. After waking from sleep mode, my laptop's keyboard doesn't turn on the backlight, or some of the keys are lit up.

Any ideas?

@VladSPI

Does it happen only with Gradient mode, or also with Static ?

When keyboard is dark / partially lit after wake, does pressing Fn+F2 / Fn+F3 (changing backlight brightness) bring it back fully ?

Also please check if Windows Dynamic Lighting is enabled (Settings > Personalization > Dynamic Lighting) and attach full log.txt from app start, not only the wake part.

Thanks

The Windows dynamic backlighting feature is disabled. Pressing Fn+F2 / Fn+F3 re-enables the backlight. This backlighting issue occurs in any settings mode, not just “gradient.” Armoury Crate has been completely uninstalled using the Armoury_Crate_Uninstall_Tool. ASUS services have been stopped.
