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'm also having this same problem and it's nice to hear a fix is on the way.

    In case it's still needed...

    Windows v. 1709 OS Build 16299.248

    MS Office v. 14.0.7194.5000

    I am thrilled to hear that there is an update coming that will fix this scroll problem. Thank you.

    Trying to use Excel on my laptop these past couple of months has been awful. Amazing how often you need to scroll up and down and how unnatural it is to use the Page up and down keys to do something that should be so simple.

    I'm glad I had not gotten rid of my old desktop because I've certainly used it a lot lately.

    This update cannot come soon enough.

    me too.  HP Z Workstation 

    Win 10 version. 1709 OS Build 16299.248

    MS Office Pro 2010    version: 14.0.7015.1000

    still no fix for this? MS Office Pro is expensive - Excel 2010 is a good stable programme. MS should work harder at finding a fix when a basic functionality loss renders a laptop unusable without a mouse! Excel users are not really mouse people.
