Welcome to HP support community.

Could you please explain more about the issue?

Are you referring to touch pad double tapping issue?

Reply with the requested information for more assistance.

Yes the touchpad.  I dont like the tapping feature and want to turn it off.   I have been thru the setting and it does not show a button where i can turn off tapping for the touchpad.

Thanks

To disable the Double Tap, open the Touchpad tab in Mouse Properties.

1. Click Start , and then type mouse in the search field.

2. Click Change your mouse settings.

3. Click Additional mouse options.

   

4. In Mouse Properties, click the Touchpad tab.

   NOTE: 

   Some HP Notebooks have an HP Control Zone tab. If your Notebook has this tab, open it and click HP Control Zone Disable.

   

5. Click Disable.

   

6. Click Apply, and then click OK.
