Want to permanently disable touchscreen on my HP Envy desktop. Not have to do it everytime I power

[JA1951]

Touchscreen has been acting up for the last 6 months. I don't use it. Would like to know how to permanently uninstall it so that it doesn't install every time I power up the desktop. Thanks for any help.

Dear @JA1951 

Please see this link:

This solution only works for the current active session. If you turn off the desktop and start a new session the touchscreen re-installs with the same problem. How do I remove the install from my start-up script?

Open de PowerShell (with Admin)  an then write :

Get-PnpDevice | Where-Object {$_.FriendlyName -like ‘*touch screen*’} | Disable-PnpDevice -Confirm:$false

Then enter

to active :

Get-PnpDevice | Where-Object {$_.FriendlyName -like '*touch screen*'} | Enable-PnpDevice -Confirm:$false

Once I enter the script line that you previously posted, in PowerShell what do I do next. I have never worked with a scripting app or Command Line apps

after the command line press Enter

tried the proposed solution, but it didn't do anything to disable the touch screen. I appreciate your help.
