@moracabanas optimization service is already added to “debloat.bat”, just re-run it again. I can’t (at least easily) disable it from the app, cause that requires admin permissions.

I just realized you have 2020 model, and it has different actions for F2-F4 (media keys), while rest has backlight control there.

Try this build, it should act properly even for F2-F4 GHelper.zip
