How To Disable Touchpad On Dell Laptop
I have uninstalled the touchpad driver and restarted the computer three times from Control Panel, but it still works. I'm guessing you mean the Smart Gesture software?Anyway there's no need to remove the software. If you're using a dedicated mouse, and want Smart Gesture to disable the 'mouse pad' double click the Smart Gesture icon in the taskbar and under the Mouse Detection Section, tick the 'Disable Touchpad when mouse is plugged in' box. Simple and works like a charm.In this mode, the only time the touchpad will work is when you first boot, but it will immediately get disabled once the OS detects an external mouse. If there is no external mouse, then the pad will be enabled until you plug a mouse in. And no you don't need to tick that box once each boot.
