Windows 10: How to reinstall touhscreen on my Acer laptop

Several years ago, after an update the touchscreen for my Acer laptop/tablet disappeared. I get a this device does not support a touchscreen

Acer Laptops :are they crap ?

Acer makes a cheap prodcut period. They user lower end plastics, as well as assembly. (I hate working on Acer laptops)

If budget is an issue then get an acer... though for $50 more you could get a gateway that will smoke the acer in terms of quality.

For a laptop though i would suggest one of the DV7T's from HP or a Business class Toshiba/HP/IBM (not the lenovo branded, the Thinkpads)

If you prefer, you still can revert it back using the factory restore procedure, there's a hotkey on every new acer laptop/PC. just my two cents

 

Acer reinstall issue

Had plenty of experience with Acer devices, been able to resolve all issues with the following steps ....

Clean install Windows 10 with Windows MCE

Run Windows updates (software and hardware) to exhaustion (i.e. none left)

Check for missing drivers ..... Control Panel > Device Manger

Access device support from Acer site, download identifiable missing drivers

Remaining drivers - download, install and run Snappy Driver Installer ORIGIN (make sure it's the ORIGIN version) - SDIO

Install ONLY !!! the required drivers (not any others, just because they're listed ... with installing drivers, it's always the case If it ain't broke, don't try and fix it). Required = missing or not working properly.

Uninstall SDIO (use Geek Uninstaller).
