Looking to try extended display with my HP 520-1010uk machine, but previous threads indicate I'll need to disable touchscreen.    Can't figure out how to do that.

I'll be glad to help you 🙂

 

As I understand you want to disable the touchscreen,

here's all you need to do, To disable the touch screen driver in Device Manager:

  1. In Windows, search for and open Device Manager.
  2. Expand the Human Interface Devices heading.
  3. The touch screen device is labeled HID-compliant touch screen, or similar. Right-click the touch screen device.
  4. If the option to enable the device is included in the menu, click Disable.

Keep me posted,

Feel free to post your query for any other assistance as well,

It's been a pleasure interacting with you and I hope you have a good day ahead.
