  1. I'm looking to disable Windows 10 touchpad gestures completely


    My touchpad is a Precision touchpad. When I enter UEFI Bios in my Dell laptop, the touchpad gestures are disabled completely "multi-finger scroll etc." I want to achieve that inside Windows 10.



    disabling them from windows settings won't be enough, as I want to be able to move my cursor using two fingers in the touchpad. But it wouldn't move even with disabling the gestures. However I can move the cursor with two fingers on the touchpad when I'm inside UEFI.


    Model: Dell xps 15 7590

    Disabling touchpad gestures in Windows 10

    Hi Andrzej,

    Precision touchpad is one of the improvements recently brought to Windows 10 to support touch gestures. Is you device running on Windows Creators Update? If yes, follow the steps below to disable touchpad:

    • Go to Settings.
    • Select Ease of Access.
    • Click Touchpad.
    • Under Touchpad, toggle the switch on or off.
    • You can also uncheck the box beside Leave touchpad on the when a mouse is connectedoption to disable it when you use a traditional mouse.
    Once done with the steps above, check if the issue will persist.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

  3. Disabling touchpad gestures in Windows 10

    I have a big problem, that makes my tablet computer (Kiano Intelect X1 FHD) completely useless:

    because of wrong working touchpad gestures all the windows minimize every 10-60 seconds.

    This is extremally annoying. The built-in touchpad is recognized by Windows as a standard mouse.

    I have spent hours on searching for solutions but none of them worked out.

    I would like to add that this problem appears in all the tablets of this kind (even the reviewers have mentioned it).

    How to completely disable the touchpad gestures in Windows 10?

    Thanks in advance

    Andrzej

    How to disable a touchpad gesture in windows 10!?!?

    I wanted to update you. I closed all my programs to try to reinstall my touchpad gesture settings application, Asus Smart Gesture. The November Fall "update" once again disabled my touchpad. I wanted to show you this image that I have now. It is the
    program that was originally installed on my PC to manage the gestures on the touchpad.

    What I'm trying to tell you is if your touchpad is capable of gestures, then there should be a program or driver where you can manage the gestures. Look at the image below and look at the change when I have highlighted three finger swipe up.

    So every time Microsoft has "upgraded" my PC with one build of Windows 10 and then again with another build of Windows 10, my Smart Gesture program gets wiped out.

    Microsoft installs a driver to enable you to gesture on the touchpad. Like I said before, look in the Control Panel, perhaps the mouse settings will give you some way to disable gestures or change the gestures.

    There are Asus touchpads, Cypress TrackPads, Synaptics Touchpads and more. Some links perhaps to give you more ideas.
