Windows 10: Acer Aspire E5-571P Flawed touchscreen - cannot disable

Running Windows 10, the touchscreen began malfunctioning, showing ghosting bubbles at the top right corner, effectively blocking all input and rendering the laptop useless.I am able to, with a lot of patience and repeated effort, sneak into the device manager, and uninstall/disable the HID-touchscreen device. This fixes the problem, but only temporarily. In several minutes, the problem is back. There is no difference in behavior whether I disable or uninstall.I also followed this advice below from a related question about "turn off automatic driver installation" elsewhere, but it has not helpe

Acer Aspire V5-571P touchscreen not working with Windows 10

My Acer Aspire V5-571P touchscreen (not touch pad) used to work perfectly with Windows 7, but after upgrading to Windows 10 it only works at the Windows 10 login screen. Someone suggested that loading a Windows 8.1 driver for the touchscreen may work, but
I've searched the Acer drivers website and there are no drivers for the touchscreen. I also noticed since my Windows 10 upgrade that the SD card slot stopped working and the HDMI socket didn't work correctly either, but after a recent Microsoft Windows 10
scheduled update both of these now work ok!

Device Manager shows an entry 'HID-compliant touchscreen' by Microsoft; Driver Date 21/06/2006; Driver Version 10.0.14393.351; stated as 'This device is working normally', but obviously this is not working in Windows 10 after my user name and password is
entered on the login screen.

Is there a specific driver which is only compatible with Windows 10 which will make my touchscreen work again?

 

Microphone isn’t working with Acer Aspire

I have a problem with an old laptop Acer Aspire E5-571P running Windows 10. When I plug my headset into this laptop, headphones work without problems but the microphone records only static sounds. I’ve checked the headset on the other device, it
works fine. I’ve also checked the driver - it is up-to-date.

 

Factory reset Acer Aspire v5-571P-6499

For starters I have a 2013 Acer Aspire v5-571P-6499

I've been looking to do a factory reset, however I have updated to windows 10 and can't find the disc that came with the laptop

I was wondering what would happen if I tried the restart without the disc or if it is even a good idea. I am missing a lot of default files and am worried about whether or not this will cause a problem.

tl;dr

No disc, Is it safe to recover?
