Windows 10: Touchpad gets stuck in games when moving(using keyboard) at the same time. No related...

it's an asus gl531 laptop and it uses asus precision touchpad/drivers I believe. Looked through windows settings and everywhere and just cannot find the relevant setting to cure this issue.

No synatics stuff anywhere and I don't want to forcefully install it either, I will probably mess it up and have to troubleshoot why my touchpad stops working entirely then lol

Can't use my keyboard and touchpad at the same time.

Hi Hayes,

There are several reasons why you are experiencing issues with using your keyboard and mouse at the same time while playing a game. It is possible that the touchpad or the mouse driver is not updated. To properly isolate your concern, please clarify the
following information:

• When was the last time that you were able to use your keyboard and your touchpad at the same time in a game?
• Did the issue start after an update?
• Have you tried to update touchpad driver?

If you are using a Synaptics Touchpad, you may follow the steps below to change the touchpad settings:

• Press the Windows key on your keyboard and type Control Panel in the search box.
• Click on Mouse and go to Device Settings tab.
  
  Go to Settings.
• Under the Synaptic Settings, go to Pointing, then select
  Sensitivity.
• Select Palmcheck and set it to Minimum.
• Test the game.

Can't use my keyboard and touchpad at the same time.

Thank you for getting back to us, Hayes. By default, some laptops do not allow you to use the keyboard and touchpad at the same time. This feature is intended to prevent users from accidentally moving the mouse pointer by mistake while typing since your
wrist sometimes rest in the touchpad while typing. However, it also has detrimental effects on other tasks such as in gaming.

In line with this, kindly refer to your laptop manual or support site on how to disable this feature. It is usually found in the touchpad or mouse settings in the Control Panel. To check, follow the steps below:

• Click Start.
• Start typing Control Panel, and click on Control Panel from the results.
  
• If you are in Category view, click on Hardware and Sound.
• Under Devices and Printers, click on Mouse.
• The mouse and touchpad software window will open. Look for any settings related to palm tracking,
  touchpad sensitivity, or SmartSense. These settings vary by manufacturer because Windows has limited ability in controlling touchpad options.

If you are not able to see these settings, we suggest that you contact your laptop manufacturer. Check if there are updated touchpad drivers for your laptop. Kindly refer to this link:

Computer manufacturers' contact information.
