    Why do I have to reinstall SmartGesture after everry windows version?


    I have an ASUS laptop. It came with a program called SmartGesture which lets you two finger scroll. It worked fine for years. Windows updates, no problem, etc. Then, I did a Windows Refresh. Ever since, whenever Windows downloads and installs changes, SmartGesture gets removed and I have to reinstall it. What is the reason?

  2. Can't reinstall ASUS SmartGesture on Windows10

    I just reinstalled Windows 10 after getting my computer back from having the hard drive replaced. When I finished installing Win10, I noticed that my SmartGesture wasn't working. I went to the ASUS forum/FAQ about it and it told me to uninstall SmartGesture.
    I did so, and began the process of reinstalling it. However, SmartGesture wasn't in my downloads folder, so I had to re-download it. After this, I went to the Set Up Wizard to begin installing. I got through to almost having it installed, but I got a pop up
    window saying that the source file wasn't found. I went into my Program Files (x86) and creted a specific file to send it to. That didn't work. Then I manually went to the location it said the set up was trying to save to. I found the file (along with another
    file from having it previously installed), tried to do the set up from there and I still got the same pop up message.

    I'm totally lost, and I've been frustrated for about two weeks already because I haven't been able to figure out how to restore my backup from my external hard drive. Is there any way that I can fix my beloved SmartGesture?

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Why do I have to reinstall SmartGesture after everry windows version? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
