    looking to disable a pre-set screen function


    Hi guys. My query is: when I slide a finger left to right across my touchpad, my laptop often minimises the screen to show all screens open. I then have to tap the mousepad/touchpad to recover my full screen, which is a huge iritation. I've been told this is a function built into windows 10 but I wish to disable it and cannot find how. Can anyone recognise this and if so can you help? Many thanks

    :)

    Hi,
    JamesCorry    . The right function key and the signal bar on your phone is pre set and can't be changed. About the music icon you are seeing on the screen, check if your phone is set on silent mode. Go to Menu> Settings> Tone settings. We look forward to your
    reply.

    There's a BIOS setting to make set this permanently. Alternatively, you can pres Fn and Esc together to toggle between the traditional and the newer alternative functions (e.g. screen brightness, volume level, etc.).
