Windows 10: I was using my touchscreen laptop but then it started "acting up"

I have a laptop with tablet mode, but it started acting up and the touch screen is going crazy, i found out i can stop this by uninstalling the HID-compliant touchscreen, can i install it back again? And is there another way to fix the problem?

Touchscreen acts as mouse

I bought an LG 17mb15t-b touchscreen monitor. I have a pc running Windows 10 (Version 1607 OS build 14393.479).
The touchscreen has a VGA connector and a USB connector.
Windows detects the monitor in Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers as 1 normal Display (VGA connection) and 1 mouse (USB connection).
The touchscreen acts as a mouse even in Tablet mode, I can see the cursor (even if I have no mouse or keyboard connected) and I can move the cursor with my finger like with a mouse. It does not act like a touchscreen at all it acts like a mouse.
On the LG support site I found they only have drivers for Windows 8.1. Is there any way I can make Windows 10 recognize it as a touchscreen or do I have to change the monitor with another model/brand?

I tried the Windows 8.1 driver from LG site and still same issue. I tried windows driver update and still same issue.

 

Touchscreen acts as mouse

It sounds to me like the touchscreen is working exactly the way it should be. How do you expect it to act differently? In order to "click" on something you have to tap on it. To "right click" on something you typically tap and then hold until the context menu appears. Just moving the cursor around by touching the screen and moving your finger is exactly the way a touchscreen is supposed to work.

 

Touchscreen stopped working -driver missing from laptop

Hi Julie,

There are several ways to resolve touchscreen issues such us updating the driver, installing available updates or downloading the driver from its manufacturer website. For us to isolate the issue, we would like to ask the following questions:

• What is the make and model of your device?
• What is the build and version of your Windows?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

In the meantime, we suggest that you follow the steps given on this article:

We will wait for your response.
