Windows 10: I recently updated Windows and got Precision Driver for the trackpad, and there's some...

First, I am using the 3 finger swipe to switch between windows, but that motion goes way too fast. I used to have Synaptics Driver and the window switching was much slower. The Precision Driver causes it to uncontrollably switch. How do I change the speed of this?

Is there a way to set tracking acceleration? Like when I move slowly across the trackpad, the mouse would move slower as well and when I speed up, the the mouse goes faster?

Precision Trackpad Scrolling Broken Since Creators Update

This is a revival of
this thread. It was locked for an unknown reason, despite the issue clearly still being relevant.

Ever since over a year ago when the initial Creators Update dropped, scrolling on precision trackpads has been a hot mess. The effects of the update include:

• Certain applications experience extreme stutter while scrolling with a precision trackpad(example). The graphics seem to only update when
  there is a decent break in between scroll events.

• Applications such as Windows Explorer, Notepad, Notepad++, etc that would have normally scrolled line-by-line at a fast rate now scroll several lines at a time(depending on the value in Settings>Devices>Mouse) at a slow rate. This leads to much less precise
  scroll that you would expect from a precision trackpad. Windows Explorer has since been specifically fixed in the Fall Creators Update, but all other applications are left in the dust.

It's been said that the reason for these issues is due to precision trackpads now using mouse scroll events, in contrast to the previous method of directly manipulating scrollbars just as touchscreens do. While it does seem to make sense to use actual scroll
events, the previous method of scrolling provided a vastly better experience.

This thread is meant to be both a question and a suggestion. The suggestion being to revert back to the old method of scrolling. The question being, is there any (even hacky) method to restore old precision trackpad scrolling functionality? It's been over
a year now, and it's been thoroughly frustrating to not have any fix for this.

Precision touchpad Native Windows driver?

Ok, I have been able to solve this issue.
I downloaded Dell command 3.0 Dell-Command-Update_4374J_WIN_3.0.0_A00.exe, and Installed.
After a reboot, Dell Command update ran and offered me two downloads
1. Wifi driver
2. Intel serial IO driver
I installed the Intel IO Driver: Chipset_Driver_C67R4_WN32_30.100.1727.1_A01_01.EXE
Boom on reboot trackpad is disabled and checking windows/settings/devices/Trackpad is listed as Your PC has a precision trackpad, and all the windows setting for the trackpad are there.

To be clear today I did call Dell Pro Plus tech support and lucked out getting a tech that was switched on, we were able to figure this out in about 15 minutes and have it solved in 30 minutes. So this was a hardware issue, not a windows problem.
