Scrolling within Microsoft edge
I am using version 80.0.361.9 of Microsoft edge dev.
I can not remember when it started but on a laptop when scrolling using the touch pad it always reads it as if I did a right click after the scroll when I go to move the mouse, if I do it over a link of some sort when I am scrolling YouTube it tends it also clink onto the link as well while also acting as if i was right clicking.
Is this just me or is anyone else also having this issue too.
(I am using the 2 finger gesture to scroll)

- koto_alliCopper ContributorThank you for this
- pneenkoalabearSteel ContributorDo you have a Precision Touchpad (PTP)?
- koto_alliCopper ContributorNo idea but I'm using a hp Spector folio, this is a relatively new thing that's been happening, I have been using the dev from the moment it was released and was fine ever since
- pneenkoalabearSteel ContributorJust so you know, if you go to Windows 10 Settings> Devices> Touchpad, it'll tell you if you have a Precision Touchpad.
It looks like you don't have a PTP. My laptop didn't come with PTP drivers and I disliked the Synaptics drivers so I installed the PTP drivers from Lenovo (not my laptop manufacturer and worked fine for me). https://www.windowscentral.com/how-enable-precision-touchpad-drivers.
just a warning: Windows Central is hella slow without an adblocker
and a second warning: it may not work so just read everything through. the first drivers worked fine for me. Every feature update of W10 however updated the drivers so I had to reinstall the first drivers.
(i might just copy the above and plop that into the other discussion hehe)
