Zenbook thoughts and question

[whirlybird]

Have had ROG rigs for years now and love them, but recntly for the sake of something more portable I picked up an inexpensive i7 CPU NVIDIA 1650 8GB Zenbook. Don't regret it at all. Use it mostly for flight simming, open world gaming when travelling and it manages all current sims including the new MSFS 2020 nicely, and has no probs with Assassins Creed, Red Dead etc.

My only reservation is that I don't know what to use the 'screenpad' second screen for. I would like to use it for maps and takeoff/landing checklists, and ideally I would save the one I am using as the screen background so it is always there, but ASUS has put these dumb applets on that screen, which I never use and which I cannot remove (handwriting, app deals, number key calculator, slide expert etc)

Does anyone know how to get rid of these? Can I manually delete these apps somehow? ASUS support just refer me to a FAQ which does not help.

I've never used it but I believe the built in apps are fixed. Supposedly you can bring some apps and web pages down to that area
