AI Thread Summary
The user is experiencing difficulties with a new calculator, specifically with reusing previously entered equations and managing the touchpad functionality. They are unable to easily retrieve long, multi-variable equations for re-evaluation, as the calculator does not have a straightforward method like the TI-89's 2nd + Entry feature. Instead, they resort to using the copy and paste function (Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V) for equations, which they find tedious. Additionally, the user wishes to disable the touchpad to avoid misclicks but has not found a way to do so completely, despite discovering resources that discuss modifying touchpad settings. They reference online manuals for further assistance.

Sorry, title limited on what I could type. I just got this calculator and am having two big issues with it.

1) I cannot figure out how to reuse my most recently typed equation. For example if I type in a insanely long multiple variable equation and evaluate, the only way I can figure out how to get it back is to type it all out again, if I want to change something and re-evaluate. On my Ti 89 I could just do 2nd + Entry.

2) How can I disable the touch pad? I have no desire to use it and I see no reason to use it, and it is causing me to misclick through the menus way too often.

Hm the ctrl+c and ctrl+v combo works for the equations I tried, but it's a little tedious.

I had tried scrolling up and clicking to bring the equation back down, but I specifically was unable to get this to do anything with summation operations. The copy and paste method should make due for now... thanks!
 
Well, the date has now passed, and Windows 10 is no longer supported. Hopefully, the readers of this forum have done one of the many ways this issue can be handled. If not, do a YouTube search and a smorgasbord of solutions will be returned. What I want to mention is that I chose to use a debloated Windows from a debloater. There are many available options, e.g., Chris Titus Utilities (I used a product called Velotic, which also features AI to prevent your computer from overheating etc...
