Windows 10: All-in-One Media Keyboard swipe gestures not working

When I first got this keyboard, I did not read the instructions and stuff so I didn't know about the gestures that came with the keyboard. One day, I decided to read the manual and realised that there was swipe gestures. When I tried to use the swipe gestures however, they did not work. I was trying to use the "Swipe to switch to recent apps" and it did nothing. I also tried the other three gestures but they didn't work either. I also installed the keyboard management software to go with the keyboard but that didn't fix the problem either. I also have the gesture setting enabled and have tried

Microsoft All-In-One Media Keyboard - Gesture issues

Hi,

I recently acquired a Microsoft All-In-One Keyboard and according to the Quick Start Guide present on https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/en-us/d/all-in-one-media-keyboard page,
some of the gestures don't work and I wonder why.

These are :

• Swipe from left edge to switch between recent apps
• Swipe from top edge to show AppBar
• Swipe from right edge to switch on Charm Bar

I've already installed Mouse and Keyboard Center 11 and made every possible device update. It simply won't work.

I read somewhere that this keyboard was launched for Windows 8 and no drivers for Windows 10 had been released yet. I would be very disappointed of my purchase if it's the case.

 

Swipe gestures

Hi Patrick,

Touchpad gestures in laptops are available as long as your computer has a precision touch pad. Many computer manufacturers add multi-gestures to the touchpad of their computers so that users can have more options. Since you're using Windows 10 on a Mac computer,
kindly make sure your device has a precision touchpad. If you're using Windows 10 on your Mac computer, you can easily check if it has a precision touchpad by doing these steps:

• Click the Windows logo (Start button).
• Click the gear icon (Settings).
• Select Devices.
• On the left pane, choose Mouse & touchpad.
• Check if you can see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad. If so, you will see different gesture options.
  

If you cannot see "Your PC has a precision touchpad" under Touchpad, you can still check if your computer has multi-gesture options. To do this, follow these steps:

• Right-click the Windows logo (Settings), and then click Run.
• In the Run textbox, type main.cpl.
• If you can see an extra tab beside the Hardware tab, your computer has multi-gesture options. You can access that tab to see if you'll be able to remove the swipe gestures.

If you have additional questions, kindly reply to this thread.

 

Swipe gestures

When I go to devices, all it shows it mouse. No touchpad. And when I try the 2nd option, there is nothing next to the hardware tab except for SetPoint(a Logitech thing)
