Good AfternoonI've recently format my computer Toshiba Satellite P850-338, and installed Windows 10 Pro 64bit.The problem is that i cannot access to the Touchpad options pannel, with all the options that i usually see on the online sites.I only have the "touchpad sensibility" option, on the Touchpad panel control window.I've downloaded a driver from synaptics, for my computer model. The two buttons up-down pages + zoom 2 fingers now work, but the up-down movement is reversed.Can you guys help me? i can´t find the optins to change this settings. Is there any driver that you recommend, better

Touchpad driver, that uses 2 separate fingers for clicking and moving?

The task

1. Place a file in the middle of your desktop.
   
2. Move your cursor to the top left corner of your desktop.
   
3. Move your cursor to the bottom right corner of your desktop, while grabbing the file in the middle.
   

The problem

If you use a regular mouse, you are able to do it in only 1 wrist move, plus 1 finger move. (Wrist: move from top-left to bottom-right. Finger: press the mouse button and hold it.) It's fast, so it's okay.

If you use a touchpad, you need to stop the movement in the middle, so that you can click and move again. Normally, it's not annoying. But if you do a lot drag-and-drop, or paint, it's reaaally slow.

My idea

Forget the regular one-finger touchpad usage. Get used to using two fingers. The middle finger is always on the touchpad, this is the positioning finger: the cursor moves as usual. And here comes the twist. The index finger is used only for clicking. So that you can move your middle finger as fast as you want, without having to stop for a click. This way you can do the task above like this:

1. Put your middle finger on the touchpad.
   
2. Move it to the top left corner.
   
3. While moving it to the bottom right corner, put your index finger on the touchpad as well, and move it together with your middle finger.
   

The questions

1. Does such a touchpad/driver exist?
   
2. Is there an alternative solution, that makes it possible as well to
   click with a touchpad, without having to stop the movement?
   (Touchpads with physical buttons are irrelevant, because they
   require 2 hands.)
   
3. Is it a good idea?
   
4. What should I learn to be able to make a custom driver for my Logitech T650, on Windows 10?
