Turn off touchpad Synaptics pointing device disabler

I have a Windows7 64 bit HP Pavilion g6-1207sa (product # A3Y69EA #ABU) that has the touchpad from Synaptics pointing device.
Apart from hitting the touchpad maybe incorrectly (? I don't remember exact model), the touchpad is disabled [diagonal red line in Silver box]. The only method to re-enable the touchpad is to run the mouse program; then using the ctrl + tab keys to get on the synaptics pointing device settings tab and Enable.
Is there a way to turn off this disabling so no matter what/how I treat the touchpad, it will always stay enabled?

Hello lalithjoseph.  I understand that your touchpad keeps disabling.

You should have a small LED light or a rectangle in the upper left corner of your keyboard.  If you double quickly, tap this box, you can enable/disable the touchpad.  This would avoid having to navigate the menus without the mouse.

I don't know of any method to turn off the option to disable the touchpad.

According to me, making sure that the BIOS and the touchpad drivers are up-to-date is good solutions to try.

Here is a link to your latest BIOS.

Here's the latest touchpad driver.

Let me know the result.  I wish you a nice day!

  • Synaptics Touchpad and Pointing Device Driver missing on Satellite A200?

    Hey,.

    I received a notification of upgrade on the touchpad synaptics installed on my laptop A200 - 1 m 4 and after I installed that the touchpad respond well, so I rolled back the driver, but he wouldn't use the scroll option. I reinstalled the driver again, but still I couldn't use the scroll function.

    On the icon in the taskbar, when I want to see the chart pressue accessory it gives me this msg * sorry, this program requires a Synaptics TouchPad, and the Synaptics pointing Device Driver * I miss him the 2nd can't so anyone made me know where I can find the installer for it.

    Thank you very much in advance,
    LEEN

    Hello

    Satellite A200 - 1 M 4 belongs to the series of PSAE0E and you choose this serial number for a driver download.

    On the European driver Toshiba page you will find the * Alps Electric Touch Pad driver *. (This driver allows you to set the properties and functions of mouse control) and
    the * Synaptics Touchpad driver * (this driver allows you to set the properties and the touch pad control functions).

    Both must be installed!

    If that doesn't help then try to roll back the BONE to this early time (until you've updated the driver for the first time)

    Good bye

  • Unable to turn off touchpad

    I have a Pavilion laptop g7-1260ua that pleases me very well except for a small annoyance and is the fact that I can't permanently disable the touchpad. I use a mouse and do not like the touchpad. According to the information I received, in order to disable it is to tap the upper left corner of the button. I tried it and it worked one time but finally she came back and I could not turn it off. Finally, I went to the Device Manager and disabled. It will work for awhile, but he comes back eventually. In fact when I disable it this way, it actually is not disabled completely. If I right click on properties it say that the driver works without problem. But it lights up the Tablet for a while - what is until she decides to come back.
    Anyone has any idea on this? Thank you.

    No one is so big that when they stoop to help a child.

    WOW, you have to reinstall the whole OS just to reinstall a driver. Download driver Synaptics on the desktop and install it from there, not in a temporary folder.

    ftp://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp54001-54500/sp54239.exe it comes to version 15.3.12.1 as of September 3, 2011.

    Once it has finished downloading, go to control panel > programs and features. In the list uninstall the "Synaptics Pointing Device Driver" and restart your machine.

    Click the new driver that you saved on the desktop to start the installation and reboot when it's finished.

    I hope this will solve your problem.

  • Equium P200 - using Synaptics Pointing Device - keeps minimizing my screen

    Just bought the laptop for all devices must be updated.

    The touchpad uses the Synaptics pointing device and often closes my screen or it minimises when I'm with her, be it in my email account or online.

    You know not so relevant but have installed Vista. Have tried to look up this loophole, but no luck so far. Any help would be appreciated gatefully.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you bought your laptop a few days ago the first thing we do is to check all relevant parameters and understand this tochpad works. You will see that the touchpad has many different settings and I am sure that you accidentally use some of them.

    There is certainly no fault. I have the same laptop model and do not have this defect. Maybe you should disable tap zones.

  • Equium P300-16 t - Synaptics Pointing Device does not work correctly

    I hope someone can help.

    Just bought this laptop and for some reason, I get an error message come saying the Synaptics Pointing Device does not work properly. The touchpad loses some functions and a warning appears informing me of this. I can still use it, but disappears from the icon in the taskbar with the flashing blue dot - when I go into the control panel it says the driver and he asks if I installed another ps/2 pointing device driver

    Looking forward to any help you can give.

    Suggest that you reinstall simply touch pad drivers. Maybe new version?
    So, just uninstall drivers, restart your computer, reinstall the drivers.

    Drivers are located on the download page of European drivers.

    Hello

    It looks like the driver for the touchpad stopped working.
    I have no idea why, but I recommend that you install the driver once more.

    Visit the page of the Toshiba UE driver.
    Select your notebook series and download the touchpad driver.
    Then unzip the driver package and install the driver.
    Reboot the laptop and test again.

  • HP evny 15-j185nr E3S24UA #ABA: synaptics pointing device issues

    I have recently had problems, right-click in the Explorer file and office, I learned that it's most likely a problem of shell extension library, I got ShellExView, used to turn off non-microsoft programs, and set it... until I turned my laptop off and back on, and then I had the same problem, but when I disabled programs ShellExView, nothing'll fix it.  From there on, I learned that a clean boot may resolve the problem, so I did and turned off all programs at startup via the Task Manager. With all the disabled programs, I am able to view my files via the file Explorer and I can right click on it.

    But with all that off I had problems with my touchpad, breadcrumb scrolling in internet browsers, and it does not work pretty close when I play games. As far as I know, the pointer of the Synaptics driver is responsible for making the touchpad works, then I helped start, and once more I'll have all my problems of right click again. I don't know if it's the programs causing problems, but it is possible to use a different driver to get my touchpad to work? or do I just try Synaptics update?

  • Satellite C660 - Synaptics pointing device does not work

    I use a Satellite C660 32-bit laptop.
    After that uninstall and removal of a large number of unnecessary programs to free up space I found that disc my touchpad not working more.

    It won't scroll up and down, left and right more.
    So I don't know if I deleted this program by mistake. Can't do a system restore either because that which is also eliminated.

    Help, please...

    I assume that you have not disabled the device or damaged Windows installation - the mouse is as fundamental as the keyboard and would need some removal of smart to 'delete '.

    Have you checked the State of the key in the Device Manager?
    You have a small button near the touch pad that turns off?
    If missing just the driver, then, you have 3 options

    1. click on 'My product to support' near the top of this page and follow / complete the pages to find the Toshiba touch pad driver

    2. access the synaptec site and download the driver

    3 go to Uscrybe.com, a synaptic site and download the driver - more features than 1 or 2

  • Turn off the mouse pointer shadow power in Server 2008?

    Server 2003 there was a registry called UserPreferencesMask value that could be used to turn off the shadow of the mouse pointer to the complete operating system, including the login screen.
