Synaptics Touchpad Scrolling Stopped Working After Windows 10 Upgrade

Hi,



Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this. Kindly follow the below given methods:



This issue may be caused by automatic update of the touchpad drivers every time done when PC restarts. When PC try auto update, it changes the settings that are saved.

I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the touchpad drivers and check if issue is resolved. Kindly follow the below given steps.

• Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
• In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
• Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
• In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
• In the Action menu of Device anager, select “Scan for Hardware changes”
  option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

Hope this information helps. Post back with updated issue details for further help.
