r/Dell on Reddit: Can't find power button on Dell Inspiron 15
July 9, 2022 -

Laptop is charged and off.

There is nothing, no button, no sensor or anything in between the screen and the keyboard.

There is nothing on the left and right sides of the keyboard, only ports.

The top-right most key on the keyboard is blank. I thought this might be the power, but I've pressed it, held it for varying amounts of time, to no avail.

Since nothing so far has worked I suspect the power might be sensor/fingerprint-activated, but I don't know where I would have to touch in that case, and for how long.

I have turned the laptop on before, but I don't remember how.

I would share a photo, but I'm on my phone and can't send anything on reddit mobile browser.
