  1. Turning off notification to enable edge access on touch screens


    My wife's All-in-one Vaio has a touch screen that had to be turned off. But, there is this Edge Access feature on it where the bottom lower corner of the screen has some kind of function. It keeps flashing this popup at random times, sometimes right in the middle of her writing an e-mail or updating an important document.


    I managed to at least disable the annoying sound it made by first locating the sound file and then renaming the file extension, which rendered it inoperative. But the popup reminder still comes on, right in the middle of the screen, usually at the worst possible time. EVERY time I try to find out how to disable it, the only answers I get back are all about Edge the Browser. Nothing in the literature seems to acknowledge the existence of this obnoxious "Edge Access" feature in touch screens.


    Can you help?? Thanks.

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.
