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.

    UPDATE...  This morning, my PC installed a Windows update and the problem fixed itself.  Now, one more Windows update just finished installing and the problem is back...

    Once again, thank you Kristine for your response.

    As far as I'm aware, I followed all the links correctly but to no avail.

    1. Opened up Excel in Safe Mode (new one on me :) ) No joy.
    2. The link for the office update took me to the "Windows 10 Fall Creators Update" with no other options. I ran it and it said that I was up to date.
    3. Went to Acer's website then downloaded and installed the latest Touchpad driver. Also to no avail. Are there any other drivers I should have tried.

    Kind regards, 

    Emile
