Folks "just wanting a solution" should try that. So I have revised this post (in Sept 2022) to now highlight right at the top here a list of the most successful few of the various solutions, ending with the one that seems to have worked best. (Again, some proved to be more "permanent" than others.) But great news is that many folks following along here (since the original posting of this in Dec 2020) had offered ideas which worked for them. But over time even that did not work PERMANENTLY. First, I had found some proposed online (which did not work for me), so I created this post to share what I found an initial solution that did work. To be clear, there are indeed various "solutions". Do you have a modern Asus laptop with the NumberPad (orNumPad) feature (a virtual numeric keypad embedded within the touchpad)? You may know there's a button to enable/disable it on demand, but do you find find it coming on when you brush that by mistake?Īre you annoyed by that behavior, and all the more that you can't find how to "permanently" disable it? In this post, I discuss ways to try to do it, including the one solution that finally worked best for me.
