How do I disable the keyboard of my Acer A315-53-581K Laptop so that it doesn't work completely ?

kirusu

My laptop's keyboard has been faulty for months now (probably 4 -5). It ghost types all the time, scrolls down fast, and even when I backspace, it continues to ghost type. The only way I get it to stop sometimes is to press the volume down button, which recently doesn't work anymore. I use an external keyboard, and I've been looking for a way to disable my laptop's keyboard so that it doesn't work completely. I tried uninstalling or disabling the keyboard in Device Manager, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to disable or "turn off" my laptop's keyboard so that it stops ghost typing?? I've also tried Keytweak but it ends up also disabling my external keyboard, which I don't want. If anyone knows the way, please reply! I am not able to open documents in the fear that the ghost typing will ruin it : ( . Any reply would be very much appreciated!! : )

Hi @kirusu

You can try to refresh the laptop and check with it like whether it makes any difference.

Please follow the steps below to refresh a Windows 10 computer.

1. Head to Windows 10 Settings.
2. Head to Update and Security in Settings
3. Select Recovery from the left-hand side.
4. Under Reset this PC select Get Started.
5. Select Keep my files.
6. After that follow the on screen instructions.

But if you do the system refresh as I suggested all your installed applications will be un installed.

Hope it will help you in some way.
