  1. turn off gestures


    System Model HP Laptop 17-by1xxx
    OS Name Microsoft Windows 10 Home
    Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363

    ELAN Touchpad
    Is there any way to totally turn off all gestures on this device?
    Also turn off tapping interpreted as clicking?
    I HATE when my window enlarges or jumps to the left or right when I don't expect it to.

    I have gone to mouse advanced but find nothing there that controls this stuff.

    Thank you.

    :)

    Dissapearing Gestures

    Hi,

    Get around Windows faster with touchscreen or touchpad gestures.

    If your touchpad gesture is not working, we can run the hardware troubleshooter by following the steps below:


    • On the search box, type in
      Troubleshooting and hit Enter.

    • Click on Troubleshooting
      tab.

    • Click on view all option on the upper left corner.

    • Select the Hardware and Device
      options from the list.

    • Click Next to run the
      Hardware and Device
      Troubleshooter.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    Swipe gestures

    Hi Patrick,

    Touchpad gestures in laptops are available as long as your computer has a precision touch pad. Many computer manufacturers add multi-gestures to the touchpad of their computers so that users can have more options. Since you're using Windows 10 on a Mac computer,
    kindly make sure your device has a precision touchpad. If you're using Windows 10 on your Mac computer, you can easily check if it has a precision touchpad by doing these steps:

    • Click the Windows logo (Start button).
    • Click the gear icon (Settings).
    • Select Devices.
    • On the left pane, choose Mouse & touchpad.
    • Check if you can see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad. If so, you will see different gesture options.

    If you cannot see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad, you can still check if your computer has multi-gesture options. To do this, follow these steps:

    • Right-click the Windows logo (Settings), and then click Run.
    • In the Run textbox, type main.cpl.
    • If you can see an extra tab beside the Hardware tab, your computer has multi-gesture options. You can access that tab to see if you'll be able to remove the swipe gestures.

    If you have additional questions, kindly reply to this thread.

    Swipe gestures

    When I go to devices, all it shows it mouse. No touchpad. And when I try the 2nd option, there is nothing next to the hardware tab except for SetPoint(a Logitech thing)
