  2. How to change Windows 10 Gestures (3 finger swiping)

    I just upgraded my Windows 7 Dell Inspiron Laptop to Windows 10.

    I now have the Windows 10 three finger gestures on my touchpad that basically act as alt+tab (Swipe left/right:
    move between windows, Swipe up: task switch,
    Swipe down:
    minimize all windows and show the desktop)

    I absolutely hate this!

    In Windows 7, swiping up and down with 3 fingers allowed me to switch between tabs in my internet browser. And swiping left hit the "back button", and swiping right hit the "forward button" in the browser. I
    liked this! It was SUPER efficient and SUPER convenient. But, this has been overridden by the new Windows 10, 3 finger gestures.

    Is there anyway to replace the new Windows 10 3 finger gestures with my old Windows 7 3 finger gestures?

    I looked through all the settings and "additional mouse settings" and "touchpad settings" but I haven't found a way to change it.

    Again, is there a way to change my Windows 10 3 finger gestures back to the way they were in Windows 7?

    Can't change Three finger and four finger swipes.

    Trackpad Gestures in Windows 10 are doing the wrong things - three finger swipe not working

    I am not sure you understood my explanation. I would like the trackpad to work exactly they way you described but currently:

    • Three finger swiping left and right doesn't do anything unless I am in a browser and then it functions as a "back" button or "forward" button going to the last webpage I was on.
    • Three finger swiping down opens settings but it should minimize all windows
    • Three finger swiping up opens Cortana but it should be task switch

    How do I fix these gestures so that it works like you described like the following:

    • See all open windows: Place three fingers on the touchpad and swipe them away from you.
    • Show the desktop: Place three fingers on the touchpad and swipe them towards yourself.
    • Switch between open windows: Place three fingers on the touchpad and swipe right or left.
