Multi Finger Taps and Swipes not working

Bought a used Spectre x360 and wasn't happy with the Synaptics touchpad as it wasn't familiar and didn't have the two finger swipe to go back functionality. It would only scroll the web page left or right. So after pretty extensive Googling, I downloaded and installed the Precision drivers for my touchpad. After some more tinkering, The drivers seem to be up to date (verified as Win10 said so in the Device Manager). Still, the following swipes and taps don't work:

- two finger swipe for page navigation doesn't work.

- three finger tap doesn't work as I would like. To clarify, I want to change my three finger tap to middle click instead of search, and after changing it in the dropdown menu in the trackpad settings, it still performs the default function.

- four finger tap is the same issue as the three finger tap.


As far as I can tell, two finger tap works as it should (right click) tapping twice and holding can still select multiple things or move windows around, three finger swipe up, down, left and right work, same with four finger up, down, left, and right. It seems like the three finger and four finger tap functions are stuck in their default options and can't be changed. Everywhere I've looked so far has lead me to believe I'm stuck with this configuration and settings because the drivers aren't available (or can't be found). Help?
