I honestly do not know the name of that driver, it is different on all laptop models, if you contact support on the support page for your laptop they will be able to tell you which driver controls the sensor on the hinge of your laptop.

Hello,
I do not have an extra keyboard at home to use with my monitor. Although I do love my keyboard on my laptop, the screen has to stay flat for me to use it. I have a window 11. My screen can bend all the way back, but when I do, the keyboard automatically turns off. Is there any way I can disable that? I want to use the keyboard without seeing the screen.

On a 2-in-1 laptop there is a sensor on the hinge that disables the keyboard and touchpad when the laptop is folded flat.
If you can find that sensor in Device Manager, then if you disable (not uninstall) that sensor, then the keyboard will not be disabled when you fold the laptop flat.
