Virtual Touchpad to control External Display
Without much ado lets directly delve into the new features and how it will help the Windows 10 users. The virtual touchpad has to be one of the main highlights in this update. The touch bar pops up on the bottom left corner of your tablet screen and this can be used to control a secondary monitor without actually attaching a mouse, This not only saves you from the trouble of attaching a mouse to the tablet but also keeps your USB port free to use with other accessories. In order to activate it press and hold in the taskbar and select “Show touchpad button.” This will open up a touchpad icon that will appear in the notification area and a simple tap will bring up the virtual touchpad. The settings for this virtual touchpad can be tweaked by heading over to Settings>Devices>Touchpad.
