I am trying to disable the Touchpad as I use an external mouse, but I am having no luck. Here is what I have tried:
Start > Settings > Device > Touchpad
- There is no option to disable when external mouse is connected; the only option is sensitivity
- Opening "Additional Settings" and then the "Touchpad" tab which only has a button to open Alps Touchpad settings which has no setting to disable the touchpad
Control Panel > Device Manager > Mice and other pointing devices
- there is no context option to disable the Lenovo pointing device
- opening
Properties > Drivers
but "Disable Device" is grayed out - uninstaled the device drivers and deleted the driver, but after restart Windows added it back
Using "Task Manager" I have killed all Alps software
