Windows 10: touch keyboard

Hi, how do I turn off just the touch keyboard? I really dislike it pooping up on the screen. I never use the keyboard like that. I like the touch screen but not the keyboard. Help please.

Thank you,

Ellen

Add the Touch Keyboard Icon to the Action Center

Hi Doug,



Adding the touch keyboard on the items in Action Center is currently not available in Windows 10. However, you can change the settings to automatically show the touch keyboard when you use the device in tablet mode. If you'd like to do this, you can
follow these steps:

• Click on Start.
• Open Settings.
• Select Devices.
• Go to Typing.
• Under Touch keyboard settings, switch on Automatically show the touch keyboard in windowed apps when there’s no keyboard attached to your device.

If you want to provide a feedback or suggestion to Microsoft to have the touch keyboard available in Action Center, you can post it
here.

Let us know if the suggestion above works for you.

Keep us posted.
