Windows 10: I cant find palmcheck on my touchpad settings.

Hi,


I wanted to play games on my touchpad but whenever i hold down a button on my keyboard the mouse wont move. Ive looked it up online and it says to disable palmcheck everywhere but whenever i look at my touchpad settings there is no palmcheck. I have Synaptics pointing device v19.3.31.31.

Turn off Palmcheck/touchpad delay after typing

Hi Alex,

PalmCheck Feature has the ability to distinguish between an accidental touch of the touchpad with the palm and an intentional brushing of the touchpad. Windows has left every scope of personalization and customization with device settings and so, turning PalmCheck
OFF, although not a good idea, still can be implemented. First thing we suggest is to run the troubleshooter. To perform the task, kindly follow the steps provided by
AndreePin on this

For any concern, don't hesitate to get back to us.

Regards.

Slider greyed in PalmCheck setting

Hi,

Changing the sensibility of the touchpad can be done thru the Settings app. There is no need to go thru Synaptics touchpad settings. Follow the steps below:

• Open Settings.
  
• Click Devices.
  
• Click Touchpad in the left pane.
  
• Choose Touchpad sensibility settings from low to high, depends on what you prefer.
