touchpad question Aspire E15

kareengas

Is there a way to stop the Touchpad Left and Right click buttons from acting as the mouse on my Aspire E15?
I don't know how many times something has wrongly, or failed to, open when, maybe looking at my screen and preparing to click on an item, the cursor has moved because I breathed too hard over the click button.
Thanks.

Good afternoon kareengas !

Try the following:

1. Click Start , and then type mouse in the search field.
2. Click Change your mouse settings.
3. Click Additional mouse options.
   
4. In Mouse Properties, click the Touchpad tab.

   Note:

   Some Notebooks have an Control Zone tab. If your Notebook has this tab, open it and click Control Zone Disable.

   
5. Click Disable.
   
6. Click Apply, and then click OK.

Thank you but I don't want to disable the TouchPad.
My "problem" is that if I'm holding my finger on Left click button, and not paying attention to that, if I even ever so slightly move my finger on that button, the cursor moves too. So the drag cursor portion of the TouchPad is extending to the Left/Right click buttons.

I used a thin sheet of trimmed EVA and put it over my touch not to do that.
Maybe it's a solution that's right for you.
