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.

    I also have a Acer Aspire ES 15, and I am having the EXACTLY same problem as you guys, after I installed the Windows Falls update, only in Excel 2010, and only with the vertical scroll. I followed the same steps as you, but also to no avail. With Apple pressing users to update hardware/software, for instance, it wouldn't surprise me if this recent update in Windows brought incompatibilities to older Office software...
