    How to disable the touchpad in windows 8 - Pavilion g6

    Welcome to the forum, Sally.

    There are several ways to do this - method you choose may depend on what you need to accomplish.

    Follow a few ideas.

    • A double tap farm in the upper left corner of the touch pad if it off for a single session.

    Enable / disable

    Control Panel > display icon > mouse > Settings of TouchPad > click on "enable TouchPad.

    They continue parameters to install and configure the TouchPad as you like it...

    ==========================================================================

    A method that works with the pilots 'old', it is a failure of session by session...

    Make sure this setting is ON / CHECKED:

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    () repeat) TouchPad settings (button) > click tapping >

    Click the shimmering blue wheel

    In "box to Disable TouchPad settings".

    CHECK "Double Tap to activate / disable the TouchPad.

    In the 'Action in the upper left'

    CHECK "Disable the TouchPad during a session.

    Close

    Ok


    NOTE that, if it is available on your version, you can select to "turn off the TouchPad" - that's fine, unless something goes wrong.  You could get stuck without your USB mouse AND no way to return to the setting to activate the touchpad.  I don't know if I would use this setting.

    ======================================================================================

    Next...
    Latest drivers (V16.x) have the ability to disable the TouchPad / click on the keypad with a setting on the main page 'Settings' when a USB mouse is used.  This is a very nice feature.

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    CHECK "disable the pointing device internal when the external USB pointing device is attached.

    If you want to be alerted and see a visual cue of disability >

    TICK "Animated icon in the taskbar" >

    and make sure you have your updated task bar notifications so you can see the view of the mouse.

    =====================================================

    I hope this helps!

  • How to disable the touchpad disabled?

    I just got this laptop and it's driving crazy me.

    I tap on the touchpad, and I touched the area where you can disable the touchpad about 1,000 times a day. No matter if I do what he says, I can't that faucet back on.

    I press the windows on my KB.  Type mouse into the search bar.  Tab and then arrow key over to reactivate and it's driving me crazy! I use this for business, but also personal use.

    I see you where you can disable the touchpad, I don't want that.  I want to disable the zone of the touchpad where you tap enable and disable.  It is a defect of design for me.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    Hello

    Click the account icon that was locked and enter the password IF you know and otherwise:

    Try Safe Mode - several times, press F8 that you start. The Admin account there is no default password
    so unless someone has changed, you should have access there. Then Control Panel - accounts - users
    Manage another account - use this down your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
    then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
    Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
    wish.

    If no joy Mode without failure:

    Try this - use the hidden administrator account to lower your user account (to the lowest level) APPLY/OK
    then go back and reset it to the Admin APPLY/OK - this clearly allows corruption. Do this several times.
    Then fix the password in your usual account. Do not forget to leave your account administrator if you
    wish.

    Make another Admin account with your password and use it to fix the others if necessary. (just for
    repair, don't use regular account, not a safety valve) always keep a spare ADMIN account.

    DO NOT LEAVE THE ENABLED LSA OR USE DAILY. If it corrupts you are toast!

  • How to unlock the administrator!

    How to unlock the administrator of vista with the password (I forgot my password)

    ... I forgot my password...

    While your application may very well be authentic, it could also be interpreted as a surreptitious attempt to bypass Windows security.

    The only recommended method to retrieve an administrative password is to login as another administrator account and reset the password to a known unknown. If the administrative passwords could be easily overcome, there would not be much point in them.

    It is in the terms of use and the Code of conduct of the responses of these forums to request or provide assistance to the cracking a password. Do not forget that you agreed to these and review if necessary.

    You can view the policy of Microsoft about lost or forgotten passwords (KB189126) for more information on what resources are available to you.

    The only advice that I can offer you is either begin to guess what the password could possibly be or reinstall Windows by default.
