Windows 10: Elan Touchpad on Windows 10, unable to disable middle click.

I'm looking for help to disable middle click on my Elan Touchpad. When I right and left click at the same time it activates middle click. I want to turn this off as I want my computer to recognise my separate clicks so I can both click.


All drivers are fully up to date and when exploring the Elan Touchpad settings there is no option to configure my buttons in this way. There is also no option to do this through control panel --> mouse.


I'd really appreciate someone's help if they know how to help!

Cannot disable ELAN Touchpad on Lenovo G500


Prior to installing Windows 10, I would disable the touchpad on my PC (hate it!) by going to Settings - Mouse Properties - ELAN - Stop Device. Since installing Windows 10, the ELAN device does not show up under devices and I cannot disable. Does anyone know how to fix this?

 

Cannot disable my Elan touchpad on my new HP laptop

I have tried every one of the suggestions to disable this touchpad. My issue is that the ELAN tab doesn't show up like on my other computer under the additional settings. The last tab i see is Hardware. It does show the Elan Touchpad under the hardware tab,
just like my other computer but no additional tab with the Elan title which has the checkbox to disable it when an external mouse is connected. I have windows 10 home and an hp laptop. Does anyone have any other suggestions. I have already reinstalled the
drivers 2x and it did nothing to change the issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Completely Frustrated!!

Based on what you shared, I think the best way to solve this problem is for you to disable the touchpad.

Please see the steps below:

To disable the Touchpad:

1. Press Windows+r on your keyboard.

2. Type devmgmt.msc and press enter on your keyboard

3. Expand the category "Mouse and other Pointing Devices" and right-click on the driver for the Elan Touchpad and select
Disable Driver.

4. Restart your device

After completing the above steps please let me know if it helped, if it didn't we can try a different solution
