how to disable touch screen in Latitude xt3

Hi! 
I would love to disable my touch screen. I've checked tons of tutorials but not single one matches what I see in my interface. 

I have tried with tablet settings, monitor settings, touch settings but there is no disable or any suggestions that option.

Also, there is no "touchscreen" in devices panel. Found only something like this

I clicked all but didn't figured it out which one should I disable.

I'm one quarantine without a spare monitor so I'd prefer not to disable my screen, because I'll not have way to reverse it

Thanks a lot for help in advance!

@Dranicki  Have you checked your BIOS Setup to see if you can disable it at a firmware level? If that isn’t available, then Device Manager as you showed in your screenshot would be your best bet to my knowledge. As to which is the correct device, I would expect it to be either the multitouch device that already shows a warning icon (might want to see what the error is there) or one of the bottom two devices. As long you have a mouse connected (or you’re comfortable with keyboard navigation) and you only disable one at a time, you can experiment to see which one kills the touchscreen. If you disable one device and the touchscreen keeps working, re-enable it and try the next one.

Follow these steps to disable touch on your device:

  • Winkey + Q.
  • Type Control Panel.
  • Go to Hardware and Sound.
  • Pen and touch.
  • Click the touch tab.
  • Disable "use your finger as an input"

I hope this helps!
