Windows 10: Pinch Zoom is not showing up in my settings

Hiya! So, I have had my laptop for about a year now, and I have finally figured out how to enable my Pinch Zoom. However, it does not show up in settings. Also, in the Mouse Properties, the "Device Settings" tab is just simply not there. I have tried to find it in the Device Manager, and it is not there. I went to the HP driver website to try and find the correct driver to install for it to work, and it is just too complex. Can someone please tell me how to fix this, because I spent all night trying to find Pinch Zoom somewhere on my laptop and it is not there. This really bugs me that Windows

Pinch screen zoom

Thanks for your reply but there is no pinch zoom option for my windows 10 surface pro 5th edition, or at least going through your steps I can't find it. Any other suggestions would be great.

• Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:

1. Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
2. Click OK.

• It would be best if you can send me a screenshot of your touchpad settings. You can use the
  Snipping Tool to capture screenshots.

Meanwhile, try to perform the steps below and check if you can disable the pinch to zoom feature:

1. Click on Start, search for Control Panel and click on it.

2. Search for Mouse and click on it.

3. In the Mouse Properties window, look for
Device Settings tab. Click on Settings.

4. On the left side of the window should be an option that says Pinch Zoom, click that and then uncheck the box forEnable Pinch Zoom and click
OK to save changes.

Looking forward to your response.
