Hi @BDT1,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

It’s unusual and a bit frustrating when a website’s image upload feature doesn’t respond, and even more surprising when the hosting provider suggests disabling your HID-compliant touchscreen as a fix. Let’s walk through this carefully and safely.

How to Disable HID-Compliant Touchscreen on Your HP Laptop (Windows 11)

⚠️ Note: Disabling this will turn off your touchscreen functionality. You can always re-enable it later.

Step-by-Step:

  1. Open Device Manager:
    • Press Windows + X and select Device Manager.
  2. Find the Touchscreen Driver:
    • Expand Human Interface Devices.
    • Look for an HID-compliant touch screen.
  3. Disable the Driver:
    • Right-click on the HID-compliant touch screen.
    • Select Disable device.
    • Confirm when prompted.
  4. Restart Your Laptop:
    • This ensures the change takes effect.


To Re-enable Touchscreen Later:

  • Go back to Device Manager.
  • Right-click the same HID-compliant touch screen.
  • Select Enable device.

👉 HP PCs - Troubleshooting touch screen issues in Windows 10 | HP® Support
This guide also includes steps to test and re-enable the touchscreen if needed.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!
