Touch Screen Signature Repair - Windows Chrome Browser

Due to the updates of Chrome version 78 and above, you may have lost the ability for touch screen to be used in signature boxes. Chrome removed the previous "touch flags" settings so these alternatives may restore your touch screen signature ability.
