Since Windows 8, however, Windows finally has native touchpad management that aligns with user needs and you no longer have to rely on manufacturer utilities (which may or may not exist) or third-party apps. Some manufacturers addressed the issue with utilities that allowed you to tweak the sensitivity or outright disable the trackpad while typing, and there has been a host of third-party applications over the years, like TouchFreeze and TouchPad, that temporarily lock the touchpad when you’re typing. As a result the next keystrokes you make won’t be where the end of the line you were finishing is but wherever in the body of text the cursor moved as a result of the keystroke. It’s natural for your hands to either rest on or brush the palmrest of your laptop while you’re typing but errant brushes will often register as a tap. Trackpads might be a very clever way to pack a mouse into a laptop palm rest but for years and years they’ve been a huge pain to use on account of their proximity to your palms and how sensitive they are.
