Как отключить жесты Windows 8.1 и настроить панель чудо-кнопок на сенсорном экране

Вот способ сделать это через взаимодействие .NET вместо компиляции собственной DLL C++:

У меня точно такая же проблема. Я использовал системные свойства Windows с именем: PKEY_EdgeGesture_DisableTouchWhenFullscreen(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/jj553591(v=vs.85).aspx).

c# --> вызвать dll через P/Invoke --> установить свойство PKEY_EdgeGesture_DisableTouchWhenFullscreen.

Nota Bene: это решение не работает для приложения Modern UI. Для приложения Modern UI используйте режим киоска: ограниченный доступ http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn465334.aspx .

DLL кода фрагмента:

extern "C" __declspec(dllexport) bool SetTouchDisableProperty(HWND hWnd)
{
    PROPVARIANT var;
    var.vt = VT_BOOL;
    var.boolVal = VARIANT_TRUE;
    // Get window properties
    IPropertyStore* pPropStore;
    IID_PPV_ARGS(&pPropStore);
    HRESULT hrReturnValue = SHGetPropertyStoreForWindow(hWnd, IID_PPV_ARGS(&pPropStore));
    // set  PKEY_EdgeGesture_DisableTouchWhenFullscreen property
    if (SUCCEEDED(hrReturnValue))
    {
        hrReturnValue = pPropStore->SetValue(PKEY_EdgeGesture_DisableTouchWhenFullscreen, var);
        pPropStore->Release();
    }
    return TRUE;
}

Фрагмент кода С# для вызова dll:

 [DllImport("libDisableTouchDll.dll", EntryPoint = "SetTouchDisableProperty"
, ExactSpelling = false, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
    static extern bool SetTouchDisableProperty(IntPtr hWnd);

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {    
        // dirty get inPtr process for firefox 
        IntPtr intPtr = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("firefox")[0].MainWindowHandle;
        SetTouchDisableProperty(intPtr);
    }

Для этого я бы использовал встроенный в Win 8.1 режим киоска, так как я предполагаю, что вы разрабатываете приложение для Win 8.1: http://www.geek.com/microsoft/windows-8-1-kiosk-mode-locks-systems-to-a-single-app-1552963/
