    Is there any way to make the keyboard backlight stay on?

    On the Dell XPS 15, I understand that going to QuickSet can give you the option to have the keylight "never" go off, but this is reversed once I shut down the computer. Is there no way to keep your setting?

    I did. And it works. But then when I restart the computer, I have to do it over again. Is that just how it is?
