I broke my W. I’ve been distraught as the computer was barely 2 months old. This video saved me from buying a whole new laptop. Thank you sir!
i was super nervous about removing the keys and hearing parts pop on my laptop, this video helped alot!
I'm glad I could help thanks for watching
thank you very much. I was sweating too hard in game and my w key fell off. Now i can go back to sweating on those people, i appreciate it! :D
I love finding super specific videos solving my problems on youtube. My D key has been sticky and screwed up with like every game and i'm happy to get it back. Celebratory d key presses: dddddddddddddddddddddddd
You make it look so easy! I've been trying to put it back on for an hour now! LOL
They can be difficult did you break the key clips?
@@JaysToDoList yeah i did what should i do now?
@Shruti Chaubey check ebay some sellers sell replacement clips
Nice! Awesome, your advice made me cut the rubber and snap the plastic..
Why are your WASD keys looking like they went through WW2
lots and lots and lots of graphic design commands
Mine look the exact same way😂 idk why it dose that.
You think that's bad? My keyboard has little to no paint left on it. I would send a photo, but ya know how UA-cam is
Because acer is a dogshit company with no standards.
It's cuz the heat of the laptop and your fingers constantly using wasd while playing
do you know where to get replacement parts for the little white parts under the key?
do you? TwT
Tell
Even better, you inadvertently showed me that the key i lifted out because it was stuck wasn't actually broken - i just needed to know how to re-attach it. Thanks!
No problem thanks for watching
Bro you just save my hole life, somehow a pen got torqued in my keyboard and i hit it by accident and the L got catapulted away with the 3 pieces TYSM!!!!!!!!!
Glad I could help
thanks mate this vid helped a lot
my W key just fell off but i dont hear the 4 clicks, the bottom detaches
Thank you kind sir, this helped give me confidence to take the key out :)
Thank you!
Under 3 min video 🙏🤌
if the white bits flirt off how do you put them back on ?
What if the key and the white thing came off together?
And i cant seperate them or stick it back in?
thanks for the video! it helped me a lot
You're welcome!
That key replacement tool looks like the one for older keys and keyboards. Have you actually used it for the type of keys in the video? I saw the knife.
THANK YOU SO MUCH😊
finally, some good tutorial that actual explains all this verbally for my ADHD brain to understand
@@Tau-5-weeb haha 😄
Where do you buy the replacement keys from?
do you know where to get replacement parts for the little white parts under the key?
OMG THANKS a milion it worked
No problem
Will this work on my acer aspire 7 2024 model??
My D broke, it won't stick back on. I ordered a replacement, Amazon. I was thinkin, I will just replace the single key now instead of replace the whole keyboard, which does not look easy at all. Thanks buddy.
Well that I n't go as planne ammit I wishe i the vi eo helpe you more
do you remember which amazon kit you bought to replace the keys? i can’t tell if the ones i’m looking at fit my purpose
i bought new keycaps but they dont want to pop into place, any idea?
Goog job!!! Happy to see it
Thank you. first I hear that click sound I thought I broked it 😅
But I have weird issue.. My laptop don't turn on, but when I open the cover from the bottom it turn on
What is this?
The metal thing to hold it fell off what do i do?
My S key snapped in half so i need a S key replacement but idk where to find one or what to do
is this possible on hp laptops as well
@peppapewds yes normally
Can i replace the Rubber thing on the keys? mine ripped a little bc of my little brother
Thank you very much!
i can't pop the bottom sections of the key back on :( could i have some help? or should i glue it?
Thx. Was wondering how this keyboard is removed.
In my case, my left Alt stopped working. Looking underneath it, I discovered a compressed TON of dust. Removing that revived alt button, nice.
...and, seemingly, I have a similar dust situation with many other buttons, ~3 or 4 years of laptop life, wow
This key board is very difficult to replace in its entirety this style is glue or plastic welded to the palm rest. Not like most other laptops that are supper easy to replace
My "Right Shift" keys gave up after 3 -years.. and now, my "W" gets sticky on its own. If I pressed it down longer than 1 second, it will stay in place for 2 to 3 seconds.. not good for gaming at all!.. I had contacted my local ACER agent for replacement keyboard, unfortunately, they do not have it. I will try the method recommended in this video.
White thing under the key snapped, is there any way I could get a replacement for it?
Phew, so that's how it works. I noticed my "Home" button was positioned funny and then it came off, I literally panicked. Turns out that I can simply snap it back on the keyboard
I broke my w key and i cant get it back in place. Please i dont understand why it isnt clicking by simply pushing against it like you did in the video. I think there were a lot of clicks but they didnt mean anything as i didnt feel anything going in place.
The plastics underneath the number pad enter key look different and I can't figure out how they're supposed to go back on. It also has a weird tiny metal bar thing that's really difficult to get into place. Anyone have any advice?
Honestly I did that I just popped off another key to get an idea of how it should look then I took the white part lined it up on the back of the key (mine was the C key) and popped it back on there tap it a bit to see if it stays if not repeat till it does :)
Obrigado. Esse vídeo ajudou muito ❤
Thank you, I took them off like a breeze after
well i apply force to the top left of my W key and the bottom right hinge unsticks
W
Great video, thanks.
Before I watched this video, I took my D key off to clean under it since there was dirt under it causing it to not work correctly and when I took it off, the bottom 2 clips snapped. I did the same thing so idk what I did. lol. It is 2 years old so maybe the clips have just gotten warn out and weak over the past 2 years of gaming. 😂
I have an Acer Nitro and My "O" key is acting weird. Basically when I type, the "O" will either appear twice or not at all. and 'Then I have to backspace all the time. Do you think I should just pop the key up like you show and try and clean it out or does it sound like something else?
@williamzimmerman7678 that might work you can also try canned air and spray under it
THANK YOU
Where do you get your replacement keys from?
I purchased a used keyboard off ebay for my computer
They also sell just keys if you only need 1 or 2
Why did a U shaped wire pop out with my backslash key?
not sure if i'll get a reply, but I also managed to break the little squishy part off, is there still hope to fix it? the clippers or whatever they're called seem fine
Yes they can be put back together or you can buy them with a replacement key in ebay
nice and simple
Seems it is difficult to replace the whole keyboard unit? There are no videos about it.
@lenny108 very this type of board is glued to the top palm rest your better of replacing the entire palm rest woth keyboard attached
does the space bar have the same 4 click noises or is it any different?
It is a little different it has a metal bar under it
what do i do if a key fell off with the connecting thing?
the connecting thingy can connect back in too
Before: I am trusting you with my life following your tutorial.. I'm broke and first time so lets see
results?
I just took the keys off by hand with the computer on. Can't be bothered finding a knife. Seeing the white marks on the teeth underneath, showing that just removing them does do damage on the plastic. Even for keys you've never touched.
How can I remove the space bar?
same way just twice the connectors make sure you hook the metal bar back up too
thanks
i accidentally took the hinge out along with the key what do i do
Put the hinge back in its a little difficult but it clips into the 4 tiny stand offs
@@JaysToDoList I did that but now my key wont click back into place, it just keeps slipping off, i really dont want to buy a new key :(
can you do this but with an515-57 model please?
I would think so this is fairly universal
Thank you
You're welcome Thanks for watching
If U have a nitro 5 with white keyboard is it possible to change the keys to the red keyboard
If you want to pop off all the keys most likely
@@JaysToDoList can you make a video on it plleeeeaaaaseer
Yeah I still am having trouble i don’t fully understand
bo, thank you. cuently the '' key on my keyboad doesn't wok. you can use odd speech to dance about it, but -- as it tuns out, its a petty impotant lette. its a bumme that the gpu fan beaings went out at the same time but... it's still a solid laptop. anyhow. while odeing a new fan fom amazon / checking to see if it needed themal paste o if it was just heat dissipation -- figued i'd see if esolving this situation was obtainable.
i could have done this ight but i did it wong on pupose.
a fiend suggested i just use the lette 'w.'
i have too much dignity fo that.
thanks again.
My d key just came off randomly and it won't pop back in, could anyone please tell me why? It won't click into place properly, if I touch it slightly it will come off.
Clips on the key arr likely broken
my keyboard's white bottom before the keycap popped off
You look just like Todd Alquist have you ever gotten that before?
No I haven't had this one yet
Bro give me key or tell me where I can find key
i broke my keys, thans
Be more gental you can purchase key on ebay
@@JaysToDoList ebay does not work in Russia
I cracked my key are you serious
Click! Lol
Yeah I had to pretend for your entertainment
Thanks for not showing how to do the space bar…
Anytime thanks for watching
This freakin acer nitro 5 is the worst laptop ever made don't buy it gyus
I have had some issues with it
Acer nitro 5 is the best laptop I've ever gotten. Not sure what you're talking about lol
@@truck_dude Impossible man, it's not nitro 5 check it again
@@Anihilion How is it the worst laptop?
@@truck_dude for a gaming laptop, it gets very hot while playing, buttons fly out, very expensive price, poor graphics and low battery
thank you…. For nothing
your welcome ..... for nothing
Why would you post this comment? Maybe say something constructive so the creator can help/figure out why the video didn't help.
