Windows 10: calibrate touch screen setting missing windows 11

Hi, I got a new touch screen 2nd monitor for my Windows 11 PC. It works fine as a monitor but the touch screen input goes to the primary monitor not the 2nd monitor.

Touch screen calibration

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Ideally the touch screen calibration doesn’t change when there is any update performed on the PC. However, there could be possibilities that the settings might change, if the touch screen drivers are updated during the upgrade/update.
Also, the registry location for the touch calibration is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH\CalibrationData.



Usually, the touch calibration might not change after replacing the registry key from an older version to a newer version of Windows. However, if the version of drivers are different for the touch screen there might be possibilities
that the calibration needs to be done again.



We can export or take the back up of key and then import it to the new windows 10 version, to replace the registry from old version to a new version of Windows, you may need to take a backup of the registry key. Refer the article

How to back up and restore the registry in Windows.



Note:
Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection,
back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.



Hope it helps.
