    I have noticed that when i press the left corner(up) of my touchpad the pointer goes to file menu when i press the right corner(up) my window restores down when it is maximized and vise versa. when i press the right corner(down) of the touchpad the window minimizes and when i press the left corner(down) my pointer goes to the start button. Well this is useful sometimes but it can get very annoying since the touchpad it's very sensitve and performs these 'moves' even when i dont want to do so. Can anyone help me to disable these fanctions?

    I'd imagine you could just left click on the touchpad icon on the lower right screen, in the tool bar, and change the options. I don't have my Toshiba laptop with me, but on my Dell laptop I'm using now, it has that feature, too (turned it off)

    There should be options (look for a tab, or you may have to scroll) that will let you remove assignments. You can enable "tap to click," you just have to change the assignments to "none."
