  1. I cannot disable my trackpad edge swipe feature


    So i am using a wireless keyboard with a trackpad to operate my desktop from my couch.I have already gone into my local group policy editor and disabled "Allow edge swipe"I have reset the pc after the change, and still if I accidentally swipe left on the trackpad while starting my thumb on the right border, it will open Microsoft edge as a shortcut. This is extremely annoying as it constantly gets in my way, I've looked for the shortcut options to try and just remove the command but my pc doesn't read the keyboard as a trackpad so I can't edit it through device settings, and disabling the edge

    disable edge swipe on bluetooth trackpad

    I have a touchscreen tablet running Windows 10 Home 2004 build 19041.572.

    I have disabled touchscreen edge swipe with a registry key change:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\EdgeUI]

    "AllowEdgeSwipe"=dword:00000000

    I have a basic Bluetooth keyboard with trackpad. It came with no drivers or applications. It merely connects via Bluetooth and give my tablet a keyboard and mouse pointer.

    When I edge swipe on the trackpad, the tablet responds with the normal edge swipe actions that it used to do when I edge-swiped with the touch screen.

    I wish to turn these touchpad edge swipes off.

    There is no app or extra tab that opens in Mouse Settings for the trackpad. There is no Touchpad in Settings > Devices. There are no added drivers for the device.

    How do I turn off the trackpad edge swipe?

    Enable or Disable Edge Swipe on Screen in Windows 10


    Hey, I am using a logitech k400 keyboard with touchpad. I have this plugged in as well as a normal keyboard and mouse. I can't get the edge swipe gesture to stop working, regardless of disabling it in gp or registry. Any suggestions?

    How do I disable Taskview when swiping trackpad?

    As the title states, I need to turn off the feature that enables Task View when swiping from the left side of my trackpad. I use my computer on a large TV and going from the left side of the screen towards the right means a long swipe from one end of my
    trackpad to the other. Every time I try to move from the left side of the screen to the right, BAM, it pops up and is sooooo annoying. Here is a pic for reference...

    Also, I have it disabled in Group Policy but it still happens. I am using a Logitech K400r wireless keyboard with trackpad.
