    Help! "Advanced touchpad gestures" settings in Windows 10 won't open f5ed40b6-3c0a-4b5a-a4e8-efb691940392?upload=true.png Hello!


    I am very particular in personalizing my windows 10 device and I stumble upon a setting that does not do anything/does not function properly. This setting is labeled "Advanced touchpad gestures" and all of my friend's laptops even though we have the same Windows build does not have this particular setting. Selecting this setting from Start search will just launch the Settings Home page. When searching for this setting inside the Settings Home page, it does not do anything.


    I am in need of help to remove/hide/clear this setting inside my Windows Start Search because it really bugs me. I even tried resetting my laptop three times, but the setting is still there even with a fresh reset. I have an Acer Swift 3 SF314-41-R1HQ with Windows 10 Home.


    I am hoping for a positive response.

    Thank you

    :)

    How to disable gestures on my Ideapad L340 touchpad

    I have a new Ideapad L340. I want to disable gestures on the touchpad (especially tap to click). I followed the instructions at the Lenovo support site (URL listed at the bottom of this post). The instructions get you to Mouse Properties.
    Then the instructions say "click Settings or Advanced Settings."
    Unfortunately, on the Lenovo Ideapad L340 there is no Settings or Advanced Settings to click on in the Mouse Settings Dialog box.
    I have seen lots of suggestions that involve clicking on the tab to the right of the Hardware tab on the Mouse Properties dialog box, but there is no tap to the right of the Hardware tab.
    I am open to registry editing also.


    Is there anything I can do?


    Thanks

    Touchpad Gestures settings missing under Windows Settings

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are unable to find Gestures settings for Touchpad on your computer. I’ll certainly help you with this issue.



    The touchpad gesture settings depends on the model of the laptop that you are using.



    For us to investigate more on this, please share the details requested below:



    • Were you able to find the gesture settings earlier?
    • What is the make and model of the laptop that you are using?
    • What is the version of Windows 10 that you are using currently? To check type
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
      Enter.


    However, as you have already tried updating the Touchpad drivers, I would suggest you to check if there any pending Windows updates on the computer. You can navigate to
    Start >> Settings >> Update & Security >> Windows Update >> Check for updates.



    We await your response.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare
