Touchpad scroll not working with Excel 2010

Anonymous

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.

Same problem here with my Acer Aspire E5

Touchpad scrolling stopped working in Excel....

System: Windows 10 64-bit

Software: Excel 2010 32-bit
- scrolling works in other applications except Excel
- Horizontal scroll works
I googled and tried all of the following with no success:
- restarted computer multiple times
- created a new worksheet - not working either
- scroll lock is turned off
- tried to freeze/unfreeze panes - not working
- resetted touchpad settings
- reinstalled Synaptics Touchpad Driver
- "Repaired" Excel
- completely uninstalled and reinstalled Microsoft Office 2010

Do you mean the Security Updates from Windows or the ones from Microsoft Office?
