The Synaptic Touchpad on my E3-112 has stopped working. It was working fine and has done for months and is still working in Ubuntu 15.04 (its a dual boot machine) but it has stopped in Windows. The cursor just isn't there and no matter how many times I click it doesn't appear.

 

I have pressed Fn F7 but this doesn't solve the issue.

 

I have checked the device manager and I do not have any devices that are flagged as not working.

 

I've dowloaded the most recent driver from teh Acer website and this hasn't help.

 

I'm not aware of any updates that have been installed lately other than the normal Microsoft Tuesday monthly patching and I've not installed any software in the past couple of months.
