There is also the chance that other devices may interfere with the signal, so check those as well and try to move around with the Surface to find out if other devices interfere with the signal. You may want to check for driver updates and make sure that the device is installed properly in the device manager. There is no solution that works in 100% of the cases but it is often the case that the mouse is not detected properly by the device if you have selected that option and did not disable the touchpad completely.īluetooth mice and wireless mice seem to cause issues more frequently than cable connected mice. It may happen occasionally or even regularly. It can happen that the touchpad remains enabled even after you make the change. None of the keyboards that you can attach to the Surface Pro seem to support a toggle. Our recommendation is that you either disable TouchPal or uninstall it and get another keyboard, GBoard and Switftkey are our favourites (and no one is paying us to say that).I'd like to see a switch on the keyboard to toggle the touchpad on or off. Could be that all the complains that Infinix users give about numerous ads on their phones could be coming from Touchpal. This development is of particular interest to the Kenyan market seeing how popular TouchPal is thanks to the app coming pre-installed on TECNO and Infinix smartphones. Unfortunately for the company, when Google investigated the new claims, they confirmed that indeed there was still malicious code which led to the expulsion of all apps and CooTek’s developer account until further notice. CooTek denied these claims, citing that they had reexamined their apps and found no evidence of the claims.

However, BuzzFeedNews later found out that 58 of the new apps still had malicious code in them. The issue of Touchpal and its siblings of apps misbehaving with adware was revealed back in June 2019 and the makers, CooTek issued an official apology which was followed by the reuploading of clean adware-free apps to the Play Store, at least according to the company.
