    How to get the old Windows 7 touchpad scroll wheel?


    I have a Dell E6420 and I'd like to bring the old scroll wheel gesture back since I obviously don't have a windows precision trackpad. Any software out there that can allow me to do this?

  2. Windows 10 mouse scroll wheel issue

    Hi,

    There can be numerous causes of the issue that you're having with your mouse scroll wheel speed such as outdated drivers, dirt, damaged cables, and more. To correct such issue, we suggest that you adjust the scroll speed of your mouse wheel using the steps
    below:

    • Click Start > Settings.
    • Go to Devices > Mouse & touchpad.
    • Under Choose how many lines to scroll each time, move the slider to the right to make the speed of your mouse wheel faster.

    With regard to cleaning the inside of your mouse, you have to contact its manufacturer to get proper instructions.

    You can find more information about troubleshooting mouse issues in this
    article
    .

    Touchpad Scrolling Not Working

    Ohhh, then that's what those lines on the side of my touchpad are for! *Eek! How to get the old Windows 7 touchpad scroll wheel? :eek: This is embarrasing, I had this laptop for 2+ years and never noticed that. I never use the touchpad anyway...

    But on topic, yes you must re-install synaptics driver.

    I know I have removed my synaptics (old version of ccleaner used to delete some file of it and I was getting an error popup every time on boot-up) so I had just removed the software altogether. That's probably the reason why my 'scroll-wheel' doesn't work and why yours doesn't either.

    Weren't you given a diskette containing drivers for bluetooth, webcam, chipset, synaptics, etc etc?
    Mine's in that cd.
    I don't think Win 7 should be a problem.. but if you just did a fresh install with a new OS you should install synaptic just like is done with other drivers.
