This is the exact list for my system, there must be some consistency which I find refreshing.

That is what I did to find the keystroke on mine, and several others.

It is usually the F/N key in combination with one of the function keys, such as: F/N +F5 The keystroke is a toggle, so it works to enable or to disable.

Is there perhaps a way of disabling the touch pad on a modern laptop?
