Windows 10: Touchpad related settings and drivers vanished after windows 10 update to 20H2 version

My Laptop: - Lenovo Ideapad S540

Previous version: - Windows 10 1909

After updating to version 20H2 my touchpad related settings and drivers are vanished. When I recovered to previous windows version it was working absolutely fine. Lenovo support person made me update my laptop and then reset it without deleting files. This didn't solve the issue and as an add-on I lost the recover to previous version option.


Note: - I backed up my drivers from device manager when I was in version 1909.

Need help from the windows community regarding this issue.


If any specific details required please ask.

touchpad driver update

Hi Chandrahasan,

Incompatible device drivers are known to operate against the method that Windows 10 follows. We suggest that you run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter to scan your computer, identify the problem, and attempt to fix the issue automatically. To run the
troubleshooter, follow these steps:

• Right-click on the Start icon and select Control Panel.
• Type troubleshooting in the search bar and click on
  Troubleshooting.
• Click on Hardware and Sound > Hardware and Devices.
• Follow the steps from the wizard to run the troubleshooter.
  

If the issue persists, uninstall the touchpad driver, then follow these steps to check if the issue is driver related:

• Right-click on the name of your PC at the top of the list of devices in
  Device Manager.
• Select Scan for hardware changes to reinstall the device driver, or download and install the latest version from the manufacturer’s website.

Let us know how it turns out.

 

Windows update keeps replacing ALPS Touchpad driver with a Synaptics driver.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. Appreciate your interest in using Windows 10.

I suggest you to uninstall and delete the previous drivers and the latest drivers for the touchpad and install the required version of the driver from Device Manager by following the steps below:

• Press Windows key + X and select Device Manager from the list.
• Expand the Touch pad driver.
• Right click on the driver and click on update/install.
• Select the required version from the on-screen prompts.

And for the problem with the installation of printer drivers, I suggest you to run the Windows Update troubleshooter by following the steps below:

• Type “Troubleshooting” in search box and press Enter.
• Click on “View All” option on top left pane.
• Select “Windows Update” from the list and follow the prompts for troubleshooting.

Windows 10 version 20H2 update

Hi,

A few days back when I checked for updates in Windows Update, I was offered to download and install the Windows 10 version 20H2. Apparently, as soon as I clicked the "Download and install" option, it started checking for updates again and automatically the
update vanished. It didn't even start the download. Next thing I see is that the prompt to download the feature update was also gone.

Can somebody explain what's the problem. This has never happened to me before. Is there something wrong with my PC? Or is it just that my PC isn't ready for the update and I was falsely offered to update to 20H2?

Thanks.
