I've noticed that when I have a finger on the top right corner of my touchpad for five seconds, Windows Media Player launches. This is rather annoying and seems like an absurd default behavior, but I haven't managed to figure out why it happens yet.
I have a Dell Studio XPS laptop running Synaptics version 15.2.7.22Dec10 and have uninstalled their Scrybe software.
1Thanks! It turns out there must be a bug in the Synaptics software. I had tapping completely disabled in the settings, but sub-settings were still in effect. I had to re-enable tapping so I could open its settings and disable tap zones... then disable tapping again. – Ryan Versaw – 2011-04-12T01:25:46.720
IIRC from playing with it the Synaptics driver has some hard coded behaviours. – Tim Williscroft – 2011-04-12T02:35:56.113
