• Turn off Windows 8 gestures/charm bar laptop Asus R500V series

  Original title: FOUND RESPONSE - SEE below to turn on Windows 8 gestures/charm bar Asus notebook Series R500V

  How can I disable the gestures for Windows 8, Asus Notebook (non-touchpad), series R500V? Configuration/program Panel and features I find the Asus Smart gesture file but couldn't find a way to disable - uninstall only which makes no difference in the extreme sensitivity of my movements of the mouse and the computer.

  Breath, movement, or simple tap opens suddenly various applications. Not always the same, but the charms/clock/date open often even though I'm away from this part of the screen. (grrrrr!) Although I might be typing a message, etc., it unexpectedly closes the window in that I work and office switches or another program. In this case is often very frustrating and an extreme waste of time.

  I see others in this forum (8 Win) with same or similar questions have solved their problem by disabling the gestures. As of yet, I was unable to find how to do this on my new laptop Asus, series R500V, using Windows 8, IE 10. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  FOUND THE ANSWER TO:

  How can I disable gestures (charm bar) for Windows 8, Asus Notebook, series

  R500V?

  After having wasted MUCH time/gene, the response was embarrassing easy (thanks to the support of ASUS) to answer this question for me.

  If I trigger "fn + f9," he launched the Touchpad app to activate or deactivate. »» This information is located in the user's Guide Win8, page 20, which came with my computer... but apparently I forgot. :/

  The problem is finally solved. No more surprises the touchpad or boring bar of charm!

  Hope this answer helps someone else. Thanks to everyone for the input.

  P.S. MICROSOFT: since it is an annoyance this BIG for Win8 users... I recommend that each seller of computer awareness among their clients how to activate the touchpad/charms off ASAP - before you leave the storebar!

  something changed with my automatic update process.  I have win XP pro, completely up-to-date.  I used the icon, do a right click Select custom, see what updates there and install them when I was ready.  no longer works like that.  Today, as yesterday for is, I see the icon it says XX % downloaded, the icon disappears and then it's as if I never had the update.  When I go to turn off windows he installs the updates received.  very inconvienent.  Any advice.  I checked my settings, always the same "download and draw attention to me..." "Thank you.

• Something in my system turns off Windows Defender.

  Something in my system turns off Windows Defender once from time to time, and I have to keep back on.

  I am running Windows XP and security programs I use are Microsoft Security Essentials, Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool,
  Spybot Search and Destroy and Ad-Aware from Lavasoft.
  I normally have all running at the same time, and with Spybot SD have also resident 'SD Helper' and 'Tea Timer"active.

  Any ideas what could cause this problem?

  Hello

  As you use Microsoft Security Essentials, the reason for this is that MSE has its own version of the Defender as part of its program.

  Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.

  Read this information about it:

  "Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials on Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP.

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/protect/Forum/protect_start/Windows-Defender-and-Microsoft-Security-Essentials/5309cb8d-02e1-40E8-974f-0dcedb9ab9fd

  Q: I have to manually disable or uninstall Windows Defender, if I use Microsoft Security Essentials?
  If Microsoft Security Essentials does not automatically uninstall Windows Defender on XP, you must manually uninstall Windows Defender through Control Panel of configuration/Add / Remove programs.

  See you soon.

  Hi George,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and we can help you with your problem.

  2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  You must have security (anti-virus) software installed on the computer.

  More than ONE cause of slow system, freezing injuries, programs not to work properly with Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) disables Windows Vista Defender as MSE has its own integrated version in Defender.
