Increase Precision Touchpad two-finger scrolling speed?

The scrolling speed is too slow. It is a Microsoft Precision Trackpad on Windows 10, but I cannot find any option for scrolling speed in the Settings -> Devices -> Touchpad.

Changing the wheel speed of mouse did not affect the scrolling speed of the trackpad, but only the mouse wheel.

Is there anything like a Registry hack to adjust the scrolling speed of the Precision Touchpad?

The magic key is:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wisp\Touch\Friction

Lower is better. Much lower. Simply reboot your machine for changes to instantly take effect.

Under this key: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Wisp\Touch

Setting "Friction" and "Interia" to a decimal value of 10 for both works for me. This is for my Lenovo Ideapad 330s 14ast.

Make sure you restart your laptop to apply these changes :)

There is no hack. At the moment the socalled precision touchpads just have no good driver, and two finger scrolling is essentially broken.

Seemingly unrelated setting, but it does work:

Control Panel > Mouse > Wheel (tab) > Vertical Scrolling

Then increase the scrolled line number, hit Apply and check the scrolling speed.

If your laptop has a Synaptics touchpad, e.g. Lenovo, you can download, unzip and install (by clicking dpinst.exe) this driver: + Don't forget to reboot.

This worked for me on Lenovo Yoga 920. I see no new service installed, and the "HID-compliant mouse" (which is the mislabeled trackpad) in the Device Manager still reports the old Microsoft driver.

But the scrolling has improved. (Not a Macbook-level but bearable enough.)

So I still haven't found a clean solution to boost the sensitivity scaling on two finger scrolling and the best results always come down to this exact thread. I don't flick so changing friction does little for me. Have you had any successes in workarounds?
