    I'm trying to upgrade to Windows 10, but it says I need to uninstall WinZip 6.3 - 8.0.

    MS has not helped a previous complainant so I'm asking if any of you have had this issue. The program is not listed in my programs so I can't do the manual uninstall it suggests. I assume it's part of the Win 7 package where I can't get to it. MS
    suggests disabling anti-virus or rebooting. WHY? It took my system hours to get to this point so I don't want to start over.

    I'm administrator but can't do admin tasks

    Unfortunately it looks like we have no resolution with those suggestions. It's weird.

    I did try and create a Kiosk mode but never made it come into effect. This problem only arised recently and I don't know if the events are related.

    Notices below.

    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
