The four-finger switch on touchpads replaces the annoying CTRL+ Wondows key + arrow shortcut, and is one of the most popular Anniversary Update features. Users simply love it: It is worth mentioning that the four-finger switch on touchpads is not available on all the devices running the Anniversary Update. This new gesture won’t work on non-precision touchpads, which rely on third-party drivers, unless the drivers include the four-finger gesture. To check if your touchpad supports the four-finger feature, go to Settings > Devices > Mouse & touchpad. If you see only an option to change the delay before clicks work, this means you have a non-precision touchpad. Speaking of touchpads, there are many reports about touchpad issues on Windows 10.
