  1. Touchpad not working


    Hi, I recently bought a laptop with no Windows installed. I installed the OS myself from a USB stick, everything worked fine, but the touchpad. During the installation, the coursor worked fine, but after the first reboot and log-in into Windows, the touchpad just stopped working properly. It skipps, it does not register all the time, when I move it to the left, it goes to the right andvice versa, sometimes it registeres simple movement as gesture and so on. Just a quick reminder, it worked fine during the installation process.


    I tried clean reinstallation of Windows - did not help.


    I tried updating the official drivers - did not help according to the Windows, the most suitable drivers are installed.


    I tried updating custom third party drivers - did not work.


    Today, I used the same USB stick to install Windows on my GF's laptop. The same problem appeared on her laptop. The bootable USB stick was created using Microsoft tools from their websites. Can anyone help with this?

    :)

    I want to disable touchpad on Dell laptop


    Hello everyone,
    My laptop's touchpad works and I don't want it to, because I prefer a mouse. It's a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series on windows 10 OS.

    What I have tried that hasn't worked:
    • start<settings<devices<mouse & touchpad<additional mouse options. This opens a window called Mouse Options which has 5 tabs up top, none of which involve the touchpad. The Hardware tab shows 2 devices: the mouse itself, and the USB. No touchpad there.
    • windows key+x<mobility center. No touchpad to be found.
    • various function keys. No options for touchpad on/off.
    • device manager<mice and other pointing devices. Again, only the mouse and usb show up. It appears the touchpad is working without a driver, which is a little spooky.
    Any other suggestions? I could try downloading a third party driver, but that seems like a step in the wrong direction.
    Thanks

    Hi Abuzar,

    Your touchpad drivers might be outdated or corrupted. I would suggest that you update the touchpad driver. Follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key and X together and select
      Device Manager.
    • Locate the touchpad driver.
    • Right-click on the touchpad driver icon and click Update Driver software.
    • Click on Search automatically for Updated driver software option.

    If the driver for Windows 10 is not available, download and reinstall the latest touchpad drivers from the manufacturer website.

    Keep us updated.
