Drivers/Hardware :: Touchpad Scroll Not Working - No Virtual Scrolling Option In Synaptics

Sep 7, 2015

My laptop touchpad scrolling stopped working this morning after I updated my gpu driver. I went to the packard bell website and looked at the touchpad drivers for my laptop. There is a synaptics one and a elan one.

I have them both installed on my laptop but it still isn't working and there is still no virtual scrolling option in synaptics. These are the options that I have in the synaptics settings:

This is what it should look like:

What do I have to do to get the scroll trackpad feature to work again? P.S, when in device manager, even though there is an ELAN tab in mouse properties, Only the synaptics driver shows up under the mice section in device manager. Does this mean that the synaptics driver is replacing the ELAN and I need them both for the scroll to work.

Drivers/Hardware :: Synaptics Touchpad Will Not Scroll?

Jul 9, 2015

I just upgraded my windows 7 original install on my Toshiba Laptop (3 years old) to the Windows 10 Home Preview Build (10130 was installed). Everything appears to be working EXCEPT my touchpad will not scroll. It is a Synaptics V7.5 on PS-2 port. I went to the Synaptics website and don't see a windows 10 driver for this...How can i get the scrolling to work on the touchpad (everything else seems to be working on the pad)..

Drivers/Hardware :: Touchpad Scroll Work In Firefox / Explorer But Not In Store / Edge?

Aug 13, 2015

Lenovo Thinkpad R500 - Touchpad scroll works in Internet Explorer, Firefox, File Explorer, Device manager and some other places, but it does not work in Start menu or any menu under Control panel, Edge or Windows Store - no matter what I have tried it simply will not Scroll - There is no doubt this a BUG.

I'm guessing it a bug in windows registry, but don't know where to find it. I have been through most that has to do with ALPS. Where the registry settings for the MS software scroll option are.

Touchpad/Trackpoint: ALPS UltraNav 2 - I have the newest driver from lenovo an ALPS don't have driver download available. But can't see how its a driver issue when it works in Device manager and the other places.

I tried getting MS support engineers at MS forum, to take a look at it, but they have this attitude that its driver issue and not Windows bug. Besides that, they never read the question before dishing out some standard solution like "try going to safe mode to see if the problem persist" - That is not going to work, since the drivers that control the scroll will not load in safe mode and then scroll will not work at all, a "real" technician would know that.

Scrolling right now in Firefox - If i go to Edge or Store, its not working.

Touchpad Not Working

Aug 4, 2015

I have installed Windows 10 on my Asus N76VZ laptop. I have the problem after a few days that my touchpad stops working. I can move the cursor around, it will highlight the item, but I can't click on it. I can solve this problem by installing the driver, after installing the driver I have to reboot it and everything works fine. If I close the lid, stay away from it a few hours, the problem may occure again and the same process has to be done. I am also experiencing lag spikes with normal task usage like moving my cursor. Not when opening new tabs or programs. Just normal movements.

Apps :: Changed Mouse Scroll To Scroll Next / Previous Instead Of Zoom

Nov 4, 2015

They changed mouse scroll to scroll next/previous instead of zoom. I use a Logitech mouse with Setpoint installed and because of Setpoint smooth scroll, it scrolls through several photos on one scroll. Turning smooth scroll off, it doesn't always scroll next when the mousewheel "clicks". Another thing with my Logitech mouse is that I can't use the forward/backward buttons. They function as left click. Double click any and it zooms in. I can't change Setpoint settings per app because Photos isn't really a typical exe app like Notepad.

The last thing is that it seems to sharpen the photos even when I turned auto adjustments off. Compare Photos to Firefox and even Windows Photo Gallery and you'll see.So far, Windows Photo Gallery seems like a good alternative, except it doesn't play gifs (unless you click next frame really fast).

Aug 30, 2015

For some reason two finger scroll just stopped working even though it was working about an hour ago. Why it changed or what i did to change it. I tried entering the control panel, mouse, then synaptics settings, and enabling vertical scrolling, but that didn't seem to fix the problem.

Touchpad Two Finger Scrolling Not Working

Mar 19, 2016

Ever since I upgraded my Dell Inspiron 15-3521 laptop to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 last year I've had intermittent issues with the touchpad. Specifically, about 25% of the times that I turn on the computer I'm completely unable to scroll up or down using two finger multi-touch gestures (putting two fingers on the touchpad and moving them up or down to make a webpage scroll up or down, for example). The mouse cursor will also randomly stop responding for a few seconds at a time when the scrolling issue is occuring. Usually I just restart the computer to get around it but I'd like to fix the problem once and for all.

I've tried fixing the issue a number of times over the past few months by upgrading the drivers from Dell's website as well as attempting other fixes suggested on other forum posts describing the same issues but haven't had any luck. I'm ready to try anything you suggest, including things I may have done already (ex: downloading the latest drivers), preferably saving more drastic measures for last. In addition, I should mention that after upgrading to Windows 10 I also began having intermittent issues with sound quality (bass is very low) when using headphones.

Dell Inspiron N5547 - Finger Scroll Trackpad Gesture Not Working

Aug 15, 2015

I own a Dell Inspiron N5547, updated from W8.1 to W10 Pro a few days back. The Dell Touchpad came installed with the upgrade, and for the first 2 days, all the gestures were working perfectly. On the third day, the three finger scroll up (for task view) stopped working and invokes Cortana instead. I went on the Dell Touchpad program and tried to untick the three finger tap for Cortana, but to no avail. Its really annoying, I tried to restart my latpop but faced the same problem.

I tried to search for solutions, one included uninstalling the Dell Touchpad from Programs and Features, then downloading the latest version from the Dell website. I did so, and installed it again, and once again for the first day the three finger scroll was working perfectly, but when I woke up the next morning, it started invoking Cortana again.

Drivers/Hardware :: Laptop Touchpad Not Working

Jan 18, 2016

I have an Advent Monza S200 laptop. I've recently upgraded to Windows 10. Before I upgraded my touch pad was working fine, but after the upgrade my touch pad stopped working.

Once my laptop is turned on, the cursor is not visable on the screen, the touch pad is unresponsive too. If I plug in an external mouse, the cursor re-appears and I can control my computer that way, although as soon as I un-connect my external mouse the cursor stays on the screen but I can't control it with the touch pad.

I can un-install the touch pad drivers, then re-install them from the Advent webpage and the touch pad will work perfectly until I turn my laptop off, then when I switch my laptop back on, I'm back to square one again and can't do anything unless I plug in my external mouse.

I've tried asking on the Advent forums but they don't seem to have had any traffic since early 2013.

Keyboard Button To Disable Touchpad Stopped Working

Sep 22, 2015

I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop. It kept prompting me to upgrade to Windows 10, so I did so. Now the button that disables my touchpad (also the F5 button) is not working. The touchpad will not turn off.

Secondly, when I try to move the cursor, the "right click" menu pops up wherever the cursor lands, and it will not let me type. I have to use an external mouse to click out of the menu, then put the cursor back where I wanted it to land.

How can I make the disable button on my keyboard work again, and how can I fix the mouse so that the right click menu only comes up if I actually right click?

Drivers/Hardware :: Touchpad Scrolling Not Working - Upgrade

Aug 31, 2015

I upgraded my Gateway NV570P laptop. As soon as the upgrade finished, the scrolling on my touch pad no longer worked. I checked the settings, and it is still set properly for the scrolling to work. I tried upgrading the drivers, but Gateway only has touchpad driver updates for Windows 8 not Windows 10 - I tried installing those updates anyway, but it didn't fix the problem.

Drivers :: Toshiba Satelite Pro Touchpad Not Working After Upgrade

Aug 14, 2015

Had a customer present their laptop for repair following Windows 10 upgrade, so wanted to post the solution here.

The device, a Toshiba Satelite Pro Touchpad had an issue where it appeared to hang on startup following upgrade to Windows 10. Investigation revealed that the issue was actually the Touchpad was becoming disabled due to a problem with the ELAN driver that Windows 10 had installed. I wound the driver back and everything was fine, then Windows 10 decided it had a better version of the driver and installed the bad one again. Solution was to wind back the driver again from 15.8.x.x to 13.8.x.x and disable automatic update of drivers to stop it being replaced again.

Clearly it is not ideal to disable the driver update capability, however if there are not sufficient checks and balances to ensure that the right driver is being installed it is going to create more problems that it is worth.

Microsoft Suggestion: It may be an idea to allow disabling driver update for individual driver basis.

Drivers/Hardware :: Acer Aspire V3 - Touchpad Not Working With New Driver

Nov 18, 2015

For the past few months, the right touchpad button does not work with the Windows 10 drivers. Windows 8.1 drivers worked fine. If I switch mouse settings to left handed, then the buttons work fine, but obviously this is awkward to get used to. I have rollbacked the driver to a very old edition and it worked fine, however then I had no synaptics touchpad settings so the touchpad settings could not be altered.

19.0.9.7 is the synaptics version

touchpad works fine on other user accounts

Drivers/Hardware :: Keyboard / Touchpad Stop Working Randomly?

Jan 12, 2016

This has happened a lot since my upgrade to Windows 10, and it's really starting to get on my nerves. Seemingly randomly, my keyboard will stop responding to what I type, and my touchpad completely stops as well (no, I did not accidentally click to disable it). These problems will never resolve themselves on their own, but as soon as I reset the computer everything works again - to me, that sounded like a driver crash, but nope! I checked the driver menu and it told me everything was running just fine. What's even more strange is that I have the backlight keyboard enabled so that when I type, it lights up. And strangely, the keys still light up when I press them, so I know it's registering my typing SOME how.

You would also think that this would be a software problem since it fixes immediately upon reset, but I've noticed that this issue seems to crop up a lot right after I have moved my computer..

In order to possibly do testing on what is causing this (I've tried everything I can think of) I am purposely not resetting my computer (this is a touch screen, but this on-screen keyboard typing is obnoxious). Currently, both keyboard and touchpad don't work, but a usb mouse I use does (the computer is also set so that using the usb mouse does not disable the touchpad).

Touchpad Gestures Not Working In MS Edge / Start Menu And Metro Apps

Sep 26, 2015

I am getting my 3 year old Dell Vostro V131 laptop up and running. I bought Windows 10, installed it and configured everything without too much of a problem - except for this little issue.

Just as the OS installed, the touchpad just allowed me to move the cursor and tap to click - not much of a surprise, as it ran on stock Windows drivers. I got the touchpad drivers for my laptop model from Dell's site (was labeled as a Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 driver, but there was none for 10, so I just used that). The scroll and zoom gestures worked fine in file explorer, MS Office, Skype, Spotify, Chrome, control panel and desktop. However, there is no reaction from Edge, modern/metro apps (like settings, weather) and the start menu!

I'm pretty much stuck right now. Here are the things I tried:

1. Configuring the touchpad in Windows settings - not possible, as the OS doesn't classify my touchpad as a "precision touchpad", and therefore doesn't allow to configure any gestures.

2. Installing a driver from Synaptics' website (obviously with the Dell one uninstalled) - doable, but it doesn't change anything at all; the touchpad is still listed as "PS/2 pointing device" in the device manager, no gestures are available, no driver is listed in "Programs and features", and no icon is to be seen in the app tray.

3. Same as 2, but first uninstalling the generic driver via device manager - not effective, as the driver uninstall requires a restart, and after the restart Windows installs the generic driver back.

What I thought about: This is obviously Microsoft's fault, as only their new, Windows-10-modern-interface-touch-controllable-minimalistic-cool-looking software faces this issue. Could I, by any chance, fool Windows 10 into thinking i have a "precision touchpad"? Registry editing comes to my mind, but I have no clue how to find such an entry if it exists.

Drivers/Hardware :: Synaptics Touchpad Drivers Not Working After Upgrading?

Nov 6, 2015

I just got this laptop (Dell Vostro 3558 i3), a few days ago i upgraded to windows 10 using the media creation tool. After the upgrade, the touch pad works but I cannot scroll. I have tried uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling them. When I upgraded there was nothing listed that went along the lines of synaptics in the control panel (uninstall).

I have tried installing the drivers of windows 10 and windows 7 from the dell website, what happens is quite weird, the installer says it installs without any errors but nothing happens, there is no synaptics program listed in the control panel.

Excuse me if I left any important details out but it is the first time that i have come across this issue and don't know what info I should give. I should also note that before I upgraded the touch pad worked along with the program of the drivers, now all I get is the usual mouse options and in device manager it recognizes it as a P/S2 mouse.

Can't Scroll With Touch

Dec 4, 2015

Ever since I updated to Windows 10 I have not been able to scroll using the 2 finger gesture on my touch pad. I am using an Asus G75VW laptop and I have updated all my drivers, looked everywhere for one that will update/fix the issue, and nothing seems to work. I've tried installing the latest Synaptics drivers and using the Windows 10 auto driver update, gone through every setting somewhat related to pointing devices and blah blah blah. I just want to scroll without having to click and hold the friggin side scroll button.
