Custom Settings For Touch Pad Won't Stick

[Koukol]

Every time I start my laptop the Touchpad setting of my Synaptic V1.7 on SMB port changes back to the default settings
This is driving me nuts since I can't work with the default settings
I tried updating it but nothing changed.
I asked this in another thread but got zero replies.
If no one knows how to fix this here...how would I let Windows know about this problem?

I am having the same problem and it is driving me crazy also! Giving me a freaking headache. I am sick of things zooming and doing crazy things. I set my touchpad/mouse settings and the next day start over. I am about ready to go back to Win8, and that is BAD. lolol

I'm seeing the same problem. I have a Synaptics driver for my touchpad and have found that as long as I don't restart the machine (I usually hibernate it when I close the lid), the touchpad remains disabled. Once restarted though, it's re-enabled and all the goofy stuff starts when I accidentally bump it.
