how do I uninstall a driver permanently without it being reinstalled

[Christian_James]

My screen broke now it touches randomly without it being touched and I can't use my computer. I thought uninstalling its driver will help but it did not. It gets reinstalled when I open my computer again.

@Christian_James,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

I recommend you follow the below steps to disable the touchscreen.

1. Right-click on the Start Menu.
2. Select Device Manager.
3. Expand the section for Human Interface Devices.
4. Right-click HID-compliant touch screen and choose Disable.

If you continue facing the issue, then follow the below steps.

1. Open regedit

2. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wisp\Touch

3. Create a new DWORD (32 bit) with the name TouchGate

4. Doubleclik on the newly ceated DWORD and make sure it has the value 0

(0 = touch disabled, 1 = touch enabled)

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!
