As part of the most recent rollout of updates, we now have an offical solution for those who have a computer that is running Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1, or Windows Server 2012 R2 and the touchpad becomes disabled on the logon screen.
From time to time, usually once per month, during the Patch Tuesday release, Microsoft rolls out a good number of fixes that solve annoying problems. Now, as part of its September rollout, Redmond has issued one update that takes care of the problems with the disabled touchpad on the logon screen of Windows 8.1

The 2984006 update is part of the September 2014 rollup for Windows RT 8.1, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2.
