Clickpad settings don't save

Everytime you enable/disable something in TrackPad setting Control Panel, it turns back on after restart.

Open RegEdit.exe and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synaptics\SynTP\Install

Look for a key in that Install folder called DeleteUserSettingsOnUpgrade and change the value to 0 (zero).


So, this is a sign something weirder is going on behind the scenes, if the driver thinks it is "upgrading" after every reboot... but anyway, if it works for now, good enough for me

How to disable the “Alt+Shift” shortcut to change language in Windows 10 (or Windows 8.1)

The option seems to have moved yet again for the latest Windows 10 update, at least for me (I no longer have a "Language" icon in the Control Panel).

Open the Region & Language settings applet.

Then "Advanced keyboard settings" in Related settings on the right.

Then "Language bar options".

The "Text Services and Input Languages" dialog will appear. Select the "Advanced Key Settings" tab and you'll be shown a Key Sequence list for changing between input languages.
