Inspiron 7506 - How to disable Touchpad?
Hi
I have an Inspiron 7506 and I want to disable the touchpad, as I find it very sensitive to touch.
When I click on Additional settings, will open Mouse Properties.
There are no drivers, Windows just updated, and I can't find it in Device Manager.
Any suggestion how to disable the touchpad?
Thank you

In control panel, not device manager, look for Dell touchpad. You should be able to manage settings or disable the touchpad there.

It isn't hard.
Go into Settings, then "Devices" then "Touchpad"
You can turn it off there. I have the box "Leave touchpad on when a mouse is connected" unchecked.

Thanks but it wasn't the case. As you can see in the first screenshot, I didn't had any options to manage touchpad. I made some changes as advised by the Dell help team, update some drivers, and then my hard drive wasn't recognised, made some changes in Bios, had to install windows, and lost my data. Now it's fine, I can see the touchpad options.

Fist picture shows the options I have to manage touchpad.
None!
I've read forums, looked on Youtube, update, look for drivers, looked in BIOS, Device Manager, Control Panel. No other options for Touchpad.
