Windows 10: Disabling Pinch Zoom in IE11 on a Touchscreen

Current OS: Windows 10 IOTx64bit - LTSB2016

Hi,


I'm still having trouble disabling the Pinch to Zoom in Internet Explorer 11
We are not using Synpatics so the option to change the "Device Settings" in control panel is not there.
I've tried changing the registry to disable the zoom or other features like swipe. Issues still remains.
(HKLM\Software\Microsoft Internet Explorer\Zoom -> Add DWORD "ZoomDisabled" and set value to 1)

Any other ideas on how to disable the pinch to zoom in Internet Explorer 11?

Note: I'm using a Touchscreen System (Point of Sale) and not a trackpad.

:)

 

Add disable touch to Action Center

Suggest adding a Disable/Enable Touch Screen to Windows 10 Action Center to make it quick and easy.

Many users use touch screen laptops as Desktop functionality only, but their touch pad driver does not

support disabling pinch/zoom.

There are many descriptions on how to disable pinch/zoom, that do not work on devices without

pinch/zoom disable.

Setting the mode to Desktop is no help.

The suggestion is an easy fix for a lack of driver functionality.

It would also help those with cracked screens where the touchscreen functionality is broken.

Some users reports it is difficult to disable the touchscreen in device manager due to the cracked screen,

while a simple click on the Action Center would be much easier and more efficient.

Try this. Takes you to the Synaptics Touchpad Control.

Settings
Personalization
Themes
Mouse Cursor
Device Settings
Settings
Uncheck Pinch Zoom/Apply

 

As i mentioned in my post. This isn't for a touchpad. This is for a touchscreen point of sale system. We are not using Synaptics. Those options aren't available for us.

 

My bad ! When you mentioned "Control Panel" I thought you were trying to access Device Settings through there instead of through the method I listed.

Perhaps an email to the manufacturer (Dell ?) may provide info.
