  1. Windows update, touchpad sensitivity issue


    I use MSI gaming laptop running Windows 10 an after installing Windows 10 update on the gaming laptop, I am facing an issue with my touchpad. This is a sensitivity issue because my finger is always moving much faster than the pointer. I tried to uninstall and reinstall drivers. I also tried to find some settings I hadn’t been aware of before. Nothing helps. But when I use an external mouse, everything works without problems.

    :)

  3. touchpad sensitivity

    Hi Joobster,

    When you mean Touchpad sensitivity, are you referring to the pointer speed of your touchpad? Or are you referring to the touch/pressure sensitivity of your touchpad whenever to press your fingers on your touchpad?

    If you are referring to the pointer speed, you may follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + R on your keyboard.
    • Type "main.cpl" and hit enter.
    • Click Pointer Options.
    • Under Motion, select the pointer speed you wanted for your touchpad.

    Regarding the Touch/pressure sensitivity, then you will need to contact your PC manufacturer to assist you on installing the right drivers for your touchpad.

    Let us know how it goes.
