I've had my laptop about seven months now....  love it.  I do not use nor need the touch screen feature.  Several times I have accidentally touched the screen and unexpected things happen.  It goes crazy when I forget and try to clean the screen.  Can this feature be disabled?  Thanks in advance.

@Fatdeluxe,

 

Thank you for posting your query on HP Community,

 

Let's try these steps here: 

  • In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, then select Device Manager.

  • Select the arrow next to Human Interface Devices and then select HID-compliant touch screen. (There may be more than one listed.)
  • Select the Action tab at the top of the window. Select Disable device or Enable device, and then confirm. If there's more than one HID-compliant touchscreen device listed, perform steps 2–3 for that one too.

    Screenshot of the Device Manager menu that lists the hardware associated with the device

Let me know how it goes for further assistance!

Thank you.  I only had one "HID-compliant touch screen" listed and your procedure worked.
