Can't find the setting to turn off keyboard backlight

Sarah,

• lacrumb is correct, keyboard backlighting is controlled by utilities put on your computer by the computer maker.
• Keyboard backlighting only appears in Windows mobility centre if the computer maker has put it there.

I suggest

• Checking through your Start menu looking for a computer maker's utility,
• Reading the computer manual,
• Searching the computer maker's website
• Searching any user forums for your computer model
• Installing all hardware updates & BIOS updates provided on the computer maker's website
