How to Turn Off Touch Screen on the MICROSOFT Surface

0:00
Hello everybody, in this video tutorial we would like to demonstrate how you can turn
0:05
off or, well, disable the touchscreen on your Microsoft Surface device. So first of all I would like to mention that the, well, method that I'm going to show you
0:20
in this video involves the register editing and what is also important, will permanently
0:28
disable the touchscreen or touch UI, unless you, well, turn it on again manually
0:37
So first of all you gotta open the run, well, utility, then type in the rec edit query over
0:45
here, type in OK, yes, then you gotta, well, go for the HKEYCURRENTUSER, hold it over here
0:55
and expand it, like so, tap on this little arrow, let me close it and expand it again
1:03
or open it should I say. Yeah, it's pretty tedious thing to do, everything
1:10
is so small. Then go for the SOFTWARE, then MICROSOFT, then WISP, and then TOUCH. At the right side, as you can see over here
1:34
you gotta look for the TOUCHGATE, well, key. In my case it is absent, as you can see, but
1:44
it's not a big deal at all, all that you need to do is to, well, create a new key and
1:51
name it TOUCHGATE, go for the DWORD 32-bit value, name it TOUCHGATE, for some reason
2:05
the keyboard does not pop, let me modify, rename, ready, so name it the following way
2:21
as I'll show you right now, TOUCHGATE, and then just change its value to be from 0 to 1
2:34
I will not save the changes, since I do not have any external mouse or keyboard on me
2:39
unfortunately, so if we'll turn off the touch display, I will not be able to proceed with
2:44
my device other than, well, hard resetting it, so, yeah, just set the value to be 1
2:50
tap on OK, and you're good to go already. So that would be it for this video guys
2:55
thank you so much for watching, and bye-bye
