    Microsoft touch keyboard appearing on startup


    For a while now, not completely sure if it has been since I got a drawing tablet, every time I am prompted to enter my pin to login to my PC, the touch keyboard appears.This is annoying.I hardly use my tablet now and it is always disconnected from the PC but I still have this annoying keyboard pop up every time I want to login.Even disabling touch typing services is futile, as every time I restart my PC, it is re enabled in automatic instead of disabled.Any suggestions?

    :)

    Turn off touch keyboard BUT have a keyboard available on startup


    Hi,

    I have the problem that anytime I touch the screen with my pen (which is what I use instead of a mouse, being an illustrator) the touch keyboard pops up, even though I have a (bluetooth) keyboard attached. I'd like to get rid of this behavior, HOWEVER, it's mandatory that I have either the touch keyboard or a screen keyboard when i start my tablet in order to be able to sign in to my account. at that point the system does not recognize an external keyboard. Can anyone tell me how to accomplished this: the steps to disable the annoying popup touch keyboard BUT have a keyboard available at startup?

    Thanks in advance for any help.
