    My Touch Sensor functionality has completely disabled or failed. As a consequence I have lost all features associated with the Touch Sensor such as WLAN, Bluetooth, etc.

    When I try to override the sensor by enabling these features in Windows, the system does not recognize that the feature exists. However when I do into Device Manager in Window, the system sees the feature, and the associated drivers as enabled.

    I poerformed a complete system restore(new computer), and this did not help. There does not appear to be a BIOS setting for the Touch Sensor feature.

    Any suggestions?

    I would suggest trying to reflash the latest ec firmware, and prehaps bios also (altho ec is the important one here)

    I think there's a driver you can download of MSI website that controls the touch sensors.
