Looking for Aspire V5-122p Windows 10 touchpad drivers

I ugraded my Aspire V5-122p to Windows 10 on Friday, after being prompted by Microsoft to upgrade, unfortunately, my touchpad has lost a lot of its functionality, for example, it is not responding to tapping, the left and right buttons are not working, and I cannot select text as a result. However, double clicking and single clicking is available. My device uses the Elan touchpad. The current installed driver is version 15.8.4.3. I have tried uninstalling it and restarting Windows, but it has not helped. Does anyone have a solution? It will be much appreciated.

SOLVED! I installed the Elan touchpad drivers for Windows 8.1, for the Acer Aspire V5-122p, which I got from:

Just an update. I rolled back the touchpad drivers to a generic Microsoft driver from 21st June 2006, version number 10.0.10240.16384, which has restored most of the touchpad' functionality. I am now able to right and left click as well as select text. I am also able to double tap the touch the touchpad. This is just an interim solution, which is working pretty well. I will try to install an Elan touchpad driver version 11.6.27.201 from 2013 and see what happens.

I have installed the Elan touchpad drivers for the Aspire V5-122P for Windows 8.1, version 11.6.27.201 from 2013, and I have full touchpad functionality now. I found the drivers at the Softpedia website. This has sorthed out everything and I am happy. The latest driver version 15.xxx.xxx, which came with Windows 10, just was not working. So, if you experience a touchpad problem after upgrading to Windows 10, try installing an earlier version of the driver, for Windows 8.1.
