[QUOTE="orbidia, post: 191765, member: 18712"] Just tested this myself: The Windows 8 Touch Keyboard on the Taskbar is on by default with Windows 8. This is a desktop computer with NO touchscreen so I have ZERO NEED for a Microsoft Toolbar with a "Touch Keyboard" on it. I disable the Touch Keyboard Toolbar by Right-clicking the Taskbar, go to Toolbars Menu Item and UNCHECK "Touch Keyboard". With a normal reboot, the Touch Keyboard Toolbar remains off. But if the computer goes to sleep, when it comes out of sleep the Touch Keyboard Toolbar will be there again every time. It is easily repeatable. Does anyone else have this? I've seen other pages describing this but apparently, it doesn't bother many people. I tried all the latest Microsoft Updates and the problem persists. I even read one website saying that it was a rights issue with a file. So I did a "Take Ownership" of all files and folders in Windows and rebooted. Same problem - go to sleep and the Touch Keyboard Toolbar comes right back. Can't Microsoft do anything right? [/QUOTE]
