  1. How do I disable the touchpad on my Lenovo laptop?


    The text began to jump so I lowered the sensitivity on the touchpad to low. This helped a little but there is still some jumping when I type. Going to settings shows that the touchpad is enabled but I cannnot find any way to uncheck the box. I use a wireless mouse and am happy with it . Disabling the touchpad would not be an inconvenience.

    Thanks for any help!

    Nancy

  3. Touchpad won't disable on Lenovo T430

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand the issue that you are currently facing, we will try the best we can to resolve your issue.

    I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps:

    • Go to Mouse Properties via Control Panel.
    • Touchpad, from where you can simply turn off the touchpad and save.
    • If you do not see this option in the Mouse Properties menu, it could only mean that you do not have the touchpad driver installed on your laptop.
    Download and install the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s website and check if you can disable.

    Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.

    How do I disable the touchpad on my Lenovo laptop?

    I want to disable touchpad on Dell laptop


    Hello everyone,
    My laptop's touchpad works and I don't want it to, because I prefer a mouse. It's a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series on windows 10 OS.

    What I have tried that hasn't worked:
    • start<settings<devices<mouse & touchpad<additional mouse options. This opens a window called Mouse Options which has 5 tabs up top, none of which involve the touchpad. The Hardware tab shows 2 devices: the mouse itself, and the USB. No touchpad there.
    • windows key+x<mobility center. No touchpad to be found.
    • various function keys. No options for touchpad on/off.
    • device manager<mice and other pointing devices. Again, only the mouse and usb show up. It appears the touchpad is working without a driver, which is a little spooky.
    Any other suggestions? I could try downloading a third party driver, but that seems like a step in the wrong direction.
    Thanks
