Windows 10: How to disable Pinch Zoom Touchpad feature

My touchpad zooms in randomly while I'm trying to scroll. I have looked at countless articles on how to disable the Pinch Zoom feature and none of the instructions match what I am seeing. I need instructions for my device. I have Windows 10 Home and an HP 15-bs0xx Laptop. I don't see why this has to be so difficult. Why are my settings menus different from everyone else's?
