Hi,

I have an HP h009tux2 laptop. It has synaptic hid touchpad. The touchscreen is working as a mouse (no multitouch). The touchpad doesn't have two finger scroll or any scrolling for that matter, it doesn't even show up in touchpad section in control center.

There has been no change in all these updates.

Please help I am confined to windows 8 only as of now.
