Windows 10: Latest Precision Touchpad drivers for HP Spectre

Where can I get latest Windows Precision Touchpad drivers to use on my HP Spectre ( 2017 model ) ?

I tried the drivers from an earlier post on this sub and they are a huge improvement. However, I am having some issues such as the scroll icon over cursor during scrolling and being unable to scroll in the settings menu.

Also I am currently on the F.21 Bios version and there is an update available for F.31 if that matters.

Precision Touchpad Driver


Hello

I've just got a new Samsung Laptop, and it has a precision touchpad (from Synaptics) in it. I'm trying to find a way to disable the "Precision" bit of it, so I can use synaptics own drivers, which have more options (specifically, the palm control on it is awful, and the cursor jumps all over the screen when typing, and selects different input areas, etc. and I want to enable one finger scrolling, which isn't possible with Windows/precision). However, I'm really struggling to do this. I've downloaded the drivers from Synaptics site, but when I disable the device, install this driver (by manually selecting it using have disk), and restart, the touchpad doesn't work at all. If I install the driver by running setup, it appears to install fine, but makes no difference. If I let Windows choose the driver, it reverts back to the precision settings that I don't want!

Been searching all day trying to find something, but no joy - any suggestions?

Thanks

Charlie

 

HP x360 Spectre Windows Hello No Longer Working

Thanks for the suggestion. For reference (for people coming after me trying to find a solution), the steps Lee is suggesting are as follows:

• Device Security > Security Processor Details > Security Processor Troubleshooting > Clear TPM

Appreciate the help, Lee, but resetting the TPM using the process above didn't work. All it did was make me reset my PIN and sign in again via my Microsoft account. As I mentioned in my initial post, I have an HP Spectre
x360 Convertible 13-ae0xx, so I've been using the drivers found here:

HP Spectre 13-ae000 x360 Convertible PC Software and Driver Downloads | HP® Customer Support

Also as I mentioned, the latest drivers are installed - that's always my first go-to solution (other than turning it off and on again! ).

Any other suggestions?

 

Precision Touchpad drivers are crappy on my dell xps 15...

From reading other forums it is clear that this is not only all Dells using precision touchpads but all laptops using it. I have a Lenovo doing the same. I also have the latest updates. I have read on the HP forums and they have the same problems with precision
touchpads.

Precision touchpads are a Microsoft imitative to quite rightly force manufacturers to raise the standard but Microsoft have been sloppy on their side so all they have done is enforced a lower standard that is more difficult to use.

I get frustrated that all I get from Microsoft is the standard steps of updating drivers etc. and then a corporate statement. The only thing missing is being told to try switching it off and on again.
