#Turn off auto scroll windows 10

The default setting in Windows 10 doesnвЂ™t support this particular customization though your touchpad driver, especially if itвЂ™s a Snaptics driver, might support it. Alternatively, check your touchpad driverвЂ™s settings to see if it lets you set scrolling to three or four finger scroll.

If you find that the gesture is easily executed, you can decrease the sensitivity of the touchpad. Since scrolling is an essential function, it may not be feasible to disable scrolling via touchpad. This will disable scrolling on the touchpad. Scroll down to the Zoom and Scroll section, and uncheck the вЂDrag two fingers to scrollвЂ™ option. Open the Settings app and go to the Devices group of settings. There may be a dedicated button or a tap gesture that lets you do this. If you find itвЂ™s a problem when youвЂ™re typing, consider disabling the touchpad when you type. If you genuinely find scrolling via touchpad to be a hindrance, disable it. That said, this isnвЂ™t something you should do just because you can. If you happen to use a mouse with your laptop, and quite a few people do, you wonвЂ™t miss anything. You can use the arrow keys and the page up/down keys to vertically scroll them. We should mention that the touchpad isnвЂ™t the only way to scroll a web page or an app window. If you often find yourself accidentally scrolling when you donвЂ™t mean to, you can disable scrolling via touchpad on Windows 10. In the absence of a mouse wheel, a touchpad supports this easy to execute gesture so that you donвЂ™t have to drag the scroll bars to do when you need to scroll a window. The two finger swipe though is often executed when you donвЂ™t mean for it and thatвЂ™s the gesture thatвЂ™s normally associated with the scroll function. Some gestures, like the four or three finger swipe down are highly unlikely to be executed accidentally. Gestures are executed by dragging a combination of two, three, or four fingers across the touchpad. Precision touchpads allow you navigate our device via gestures.
