I'm on a Toshiba laptop (E45t) that uses a Synaptics touch pad. My
upgrade to W10 core from 8.1 went OK as far as the touchpad is concerned.
If I recall correctly, shortly after the OS upgrade Windows update
provided me with a touchpad driver update.
I'm currently running a driver provided by Synaptics, signed by
Microsoft, dated 07/21/2015, version number 19.0.16.3. All is working
well.
Don't know if this helps you at all - but that's my story and I'm
stickin' to it. (<;
