Microsoft removed this option from the RTM build of Windows 8, and there is no option in Control Panel to disable the touch input.
Users who have Windows 8 on a touch device, and want to touch input, for any reason, follow the instructions below to completely disable touch input in Windows to turn off the eighth
NOTE: If the touch input is disabled, you will not be able to shutdown, restart or perform other actions on the touch screen. So go with these instructions only if you have a couple of physical keyboard and mouse. Note that Windows does not allow even the touch input after a restart. Do you have the original settings to make your touch again.
We tested this in Windows 8 races in Pro ax 86 tablets. This manual may not work on Windows-based devices RT.
Step 1: Start Device Manager. To do this, press Windows + R key combination to open the first Run dialog, type devmgmt.msc in the box and then press the ENTER button.
Step 2: Once you start the Device Manager, look for an entry called Human Interface Devices (HID) and expand the same. You'll see four or more entries HID compliant device.
Step 3: Right click on each HID-compliant device entry
one-by-one and tap disable option to disable the touch input. Make sure you
disable all HID-compliant devices. When you tap the disable option, you might
see "Disabling this device will cause it to stop functioning. Do you really want
it? to disable"message. Tap Yes button. That's it! Once disabled, you will need
a keyboard or mice to control your tablet or touch device.
To enable the touch input again, open up the Device Manager, right click on each
human interface device entry one after another and click Enable option using
your physical keyboards or mice.
