How can I remove buttons of my keyboards?

Some buttons of the keyboards aren’t working well. I’d like to remove them and clean the platform. How can I do it?

Thank you so much

A disassembly video. Very useful information!

You can buy a new keyboard for about $15 on eBay if worst comes to worst. A comforting backup if all else fails.

I wouldn’t try to remove individual buttons (looks like you have to tear the keyboard apart).

If it were me and and I was intent on not buying a replacement (still nice to know that’s available as a backup), I’d remove it, flip it keys down and immerse it in 91% alcohol. Get something suitable as a soaking tray and dunk it. Agitate it while being soaked, which means, put it in keys down and wiggle it vigorously around in the alcohol. After a good multiple dunking and agitating, I’d let it thoroughly dry out and then reinstall it to see if that had resolved individual key issues.

it depends on the make and model number of the keyboard some do come apart and can be dis assembled and cleaned with an alcohol saturated cotton ball then allowed to dry thoroughly before reassembly. Other keyboards are somewhat sealed and very complicated to disassemble.

You are welcome Tiziana. I do not believe you can service the keyboard in your model laptop but they seem quite easy to replace with a new keyboard. This video may help you.
