Is there any software / drivers I am able to install which allow one pixel or an area of the screen to become 'touchscreen dead'? I have a 'phantom touch' problem on my Microsoft Surface Pro 4 where it thinks that I am constantly pressing one point on the screen when I am not. If I could just turn off that point and have the rest of the touchscreen work that would fix the whole issue. Anyone have anything similar happen or know any solutions?

Can you disable the touch screen until you can get it replaced? Use a BlueTooth Mouse.– JohnNov 12, 2020 at 1:08

@John - How does the author disable the touchscreen, If the touchscreen, is malfunctioning and preventing that by phantom inputs?– RamhoundNov 12, 2020 at 3:12

The touchscreen is still semi usable a lot of programs just look at the most recent touch and I have a mouse. I would like to have the touchscreen be usable though as it is a tablet computer and it is far less portable as a laptop. That's why if I disable just the area where the phantom click keeps getting triggered then the screen shouldn't have any other problems.– DanNov 12, 2020 at 4:15

If there is no way to disable the touchscreen (I was not sure) then you need to replace the screen.– JohnNov 12, 2020 at 13:06
