Windows 10: Synaptics touchpad driver not working

Hi all, I need help I'm not very good with computers but I can follow instructions very well if anyone can help me. My Touchpad stopped working. I've tried everything that I had Googled...


I have an HP Laptop 15-bs1xx


I tried to update the drivers in the device manager but the Synaptics touchpad is not there.


I tried to download the drivers through HP website. I download an install it then I have to restart the laptop to complete the installation but when it comes back on it's still not working. I search in the device manager it is there so I update the drivers then have to restart the computer again then when it comes back on in device manager it has deleted?


So I downloaded driver easy and paid for the Pro version and still nothing?


I tried to do a systems restore that didn't help.


Then I tried a factory reset and still nothing? I don't know what else to do.

:)

Latest Synaptics Touchpad Driver for Windows 10


After updating from b. 10240 to 10586.3 ( W 10 x64), Windows installed an older version of Synaptics 19.0.15.2, before I had 19.0.19.1.
Also now, in Device Manager, it's listed under PS/2 Port touchpad, before it was SmBus.
Windows Update does no longer provide 19.0.19.1 driver, Why??
What are the recommended steps to get installed manually the latest Synaptics driver because with the currently installed driver, mouse scrolling does not work for Start menu - All apps, with 19.0.19.1 it used to work.
Also what is the name of the x64 .inf to use for update synSmbDrv.inf or SynPD.inf??
Thank you.
