My acer aspire e14 "W" key keep falling off.
I have tried putting it back several times but if I press at the bottom of the "W" key it will fall off again. Does it need glue or something? Can someone teach me how to put it back ? Thank you
The clip is not broken i think

Looks to be intact.

The black 'clip' that's currently on the back of the key, should connect to the keyboard itself - latching over the hooks/clips, and the keycap should press down onto it.
I'm not sure if you can remove the clip from the back for the key without risking damage though.

No, you do not need glue.
