    Hi everyone, Alienware user here joining the Sager party. I have come across an issue with the RGB backlight control for my keyboard. Basically I cannot set my keyboard to any of the primary colours apart from Blue because the app forces a bit of blue for every colour.

    On the 8 colour selector, if I select RED, it will come up as pink because it somehow reads R:255 G:0 B:24.

    The story is the same if I select green and the only colours that display properly are Blue and white because they use the maximum amount of blue light. I just want to set my keyboard and power button to light up as a pure red colour. It's infuriating!

    Has anyone else run into this issue? Is there a way to reset the keyboard backlight? Does the Keyboard Backlight app store the data somewhere that we can edit another way like on the Alienware machines?

    What's the version of the driver are you using?

    Good! Hopefully it was minor and that was a permanent fix.
