  1. I have no touchpad option under devices in windows 10


    I have a Lenovo ideapad 5 laptop, the touchpad does not work and there is no sign or trace of a touchpad option in windows. I tried everything I could find in google but nothing helped.there isn't a dedicated touchpad driver for this model in the Lenovo site.


    Everything is up to date. all the drivers are installedand up to date, windows is up to date, tried installing intel io drivers to see if it helps. nothing.


    how do I get the touchpad option to appear in windows? I have only 'mouse'.

    :)

    I want to disable touchpad on Dell laptop


    Hello everyone,
    My laptop's touchpad works and I don't want it to, because I prefer a mouse. It's a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series on windows 10 OS.

    What I have tried that hasn't worked:
    • start<settings<devices<mouse & touchpad<additional mouse options. This opens a window called Mouse Options which has 5 tabs up top, none of which involve the touchpad. The Hardware tab shows 2 devices: the mouse itself, and the USB. No touchpad there.
    • windows key+x<mobility center. No touchpad to be found.
    • various function keys. No options for touchpad on/off.
    • device manager<mice and other pointing devices. Again, only the mouse and usb show up. It appears the touchpad is working without a driver, which is a little spooky.
    Any other suggestions? I could try downloading a third party driver, but that seems like a step in the wrong direction.
    Thanks
