What is the best program to use to lock the touchpad?

Question

System administration

There are many laptops from different manufacturers that run on Windows. You need to make sure that when you connect a mouse to USB, the touchpad turns off. Who faced a similar task, tell me what software is best to use.

Answer 1

Control Panel -> Mouse -> Device Settings -> Disable when external mouse is connected. There are not in every version of the drivers, if not, then either update the drivers or disable the touchpad itself, which is the easiest. Or make a shortcut to enable / disable the touchpad with something like www.nirsoft.net/utils/device_manager_view.html

Answer 2

I usually distort the train

Answer 3

Strange task. On laptops, there is a key combination through fn or even a separate button to turn off the touchpad. Why reinvent the wheel?
