    What "readme"?  Also, I don't understand the folder remark.  

    For what it's worth, for me the Acer Care Center says "update firmware v1.17 to improve touchpad performance."

    i wa referring to BIOS update.

     

    your update is about touchpad improvements, so you just need to download it from Acer care center and run it.

    same for me. It's the Acer Care center who tries to install the touchpad update.

    Don't worry trying to download the firmware, for some reason the device got turned off. press windows+x select device manager (M) and then enable the touchpad (see picture below)

     

    Big red rectangle at bottom = device that needs to be enabled.

    Small red square at top = button to enable (will be green before you fix it, when it is grey touchpad will work)

    Hi Hydden,

    thanks for posting this. I've checked the device manager settings and unfortunately it looks like the same than yours. Means, the touchpad isn't turned off. Well, this was no surprise to me, as I knew my touchpad works fine.
