Disable Flicks Gesture in Windows 10.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

We understand the difficulties you are facing with the Flicks Gesture in Windows on your Edge browser. We appreciate your effort in troubleshooting the issue and thanks for providing us the detail information in the post. To have a clarity on this
issue, we need some information.

• What is the Windows version and build installed?
• What is the make and model of the PC?
  
• Do you have the Ink feature enabled in the PC?
  
• Are you looking to disable the Flicks Gesture option completely from the PC or just for Microsoft Edge?

If you are using Ink feature option and you are in
Windows 10, then we would suggest you to disable the
Ink feature and check if that helps you to solve the problem.

However, we would suggest you to change the registry settings for the Flicks Gesture.

Registry disclaimer: 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.

1. Press Windows + R and type
   regedit.
   
2. Navigate to this location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wisp\Pen\SysEventParameters
   
3. Once you click on SysEventParameters and then on Right pane you need to click
   FlickMode and change the Hexadecimal value to
   3 and click Ok.
   
4. Restart the PC and check if you are able to disable it.

We await your response.

Swipe gestures

Hi Patrick,

Touchpad gestures in laptops are available as long as your computer has a precision touch pad. Many computer manufacturers add multi-gestures to the touchpad of their computers so that users can have more options. Since you're using Windows 10 on a Mac computer,
kindly make sure your device has a precision touchpad. If you're using Windows 10 on your Mac computer, you can easily check if it has a precision touchpad by doing these steps:

• Click the Windows logo (Start button).
• Click the gear icon (Settings).
• Select Devices.
• On the left pane, choose Mouse & touchpad.
• Check if you can see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad. If so, you will see different gesture options.
  

If you cannot see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad, you can still check if your computer has multi-gesture options. To do this, follow these steps:

• Right-click the Windows logo (Settings), and then click Run.
• In the Run textbox, type main.cpl.
• If you can see an extra tab beside the Hardware tab, your computer has multi-gesture options. You can access that tab to see if you'll be able to remove the swipe gestures.

If you have additional questions, kindly reply to this thread.
