G75vw does not toggle touchpad when pressing Fn + F9

See title. I'm not aware of any recent changes to my pc that could have caused this behavior. I've tried pressing Fn+F9 to disable the touchpad, because I constantly trigger it while typing with my thumbs.

I tried uninstalling the touchpad driver, didn't work. I think I had a synaptics touchpad driver showing in the system tray, it is no longer there. Hope that helps in diagnosing my problem.

Here is a link to the driver I use on my G75VW having the latest version of Windows 10:

May I suggest you download and install the latest version of the ATK driver as well:

Good Luck

I installed the driver for the trackpad but there is no change. Fn + f9 still doesn't toggle the pad. Also updated the ATK and no effect either.

In Control Panel/Programs and Features, is the Synaptics Pointing Device Driver listed?

In Device Manager/Mice and other pointing devices, is the Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad listed?

Do all the other Function Keys work properly?

For some reason it works now. All i did was uninstall realtek drivers, delete the realtek folder, then install the new driver. I'm stumped why this would help.
