Synaptics HID Touchpad Driver Broken
Apparently Synaptics released a touchpad driver on Windows update and it has completely ruined the touchpad on my Dell Venue 11 Pro 5130. The driver version I have is 19.0.6 and it is terrible! The scrolling is sloppy and none of the gestures work. I can't even right click without using the physical button. The built in windows HID Compliant Mouse driver (10.0.10074) works perfectly, with all gestures working. The problem I have now is that the Synaptics driver is like a damn virus, I can uninstall it and get the built-in windows driver back, but within 1 minute of uninstalling it, the Synaptics driver reinstalls itself and my touchpad is terrible again. Does anyone know how to completely remove the Synaptics drivers and hide them from windows update in build 10074?

Nothing really helped.
I need it to work offline as no wifi and no other AP device.
