Toshiba TouchPad On/Off Utility is a handy and reliable application that targets Toshiba laptops, able to quickly disable and enable the touchpad by pressing a simple hotkey.The program was issued by Toshiba itself and it usually comes as a pre-installed program on Toshiba notebooks, but it is available as a separate download as well in case you accidentally removed it from the computer.The idea behind the utility is to provide users with a simple method of turning off the touchpad whenever the situation requires. It comes across as an alternative to traditional methods that are more tedious to perform, such as tackling the Control Panel or the BIOS section.Toshiba TouchPad On/Off Utility is extremely easy to install and use; the whole deployment process takes a couple of seconds, following which you can start enjoying its functionality without putting effort into advanced configurations.The program automatically disables the touchpad whenever you hold down the Fn and the F9 (F1 on some laptops) key. The operation goes both ways, therefore in order to re-enable the touchpad, the same combination of keys can be used.As soon as you turn the touchpad off, you will be notified accordingly through an icon that pops up on the screen. In order to make sure that it has been disabled, swipe your fingers across the touchpad and check if the cursor moves.In conclusion, Toshiba TouchPad On/Off Utility is a rather simple utility, but despite its basic functionality and the lack of an actual interface, it manages to accomplish an operation that would otherwise be time consuming.
