    Hmm...do you mean the key itself? Or the entire area around the Esc key as well?

    If it's the entire area..I suppose you could just detach the keyboard and bend it back straight.

    You have to remove 2 screws on the bottom, then unlock 4 keyboard latches then pull out the keyboard forward and lay the keyboard on the front side then disconnect the FPC. 4 keyboard latches located on the top of [F1], [F5 & F6], [F10], [Ins], please use the small fat screw driver to unlock them.
