Touchpad scroll not working with Excel 2010

Good day all,

I have an Acer Aspire ES 15 running 64bit Windows 10 and Office 2010 Professional.

I've just built this machine from new and the only application or situation where 2 fingered scrolling on the touchpad doesn't work is Excel 2010.

Following some online advice I ran a fix which didn't fix it.

I also uninstalled Office 2010. That's when I found out Office 365 was pre-installed. I uninstalled that as well. I have now performed a fresh install of Office 2010 and still have the same problem with Excel 2010 only.

Btw, this is happening for all excel files whether they have freeze panes or not.

Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated.

    One more symptom.

    Whilst still in Excel, the two fingered scrolling also doesn't work when you're using the explorer option to do a 'save as'.

    We suggest that you download and run the Show or hide updates troubleshooter to temporarily prevent the update from being reinstalled until an updated fix is available. This will provide a user interface for hiding and showing Windows Updates and drivers for Windows 10. Please see the link below for more details:
