Synaptics Touchpad 4 Finger Gestures

Introduction

Windows 10 has an excellent gesture function.But it can not be used on models without a precision touch pad.
In this article I will show you how to manipulate the Synaptics registry so that you can use 4 finger gestures with your touchpad.

Swiping to left switches to the virtual desktop on the right. Swiping to right switches to the left virtual desktop.

My synaptics touchpad driver version is 17.0.10.8.

4 Finger Horizontal Gesture

Copy and paste the following code to the Notepad. Save it with the extension ".reg". I saved it as syntp_4fhoriz.reg.Run regedit (you may need to run it as administrator). Go to File, Import, and choose the file you saved.
