Dell TouchPad randomly stops working correctly

Question

Ever since I updated to Windows 10 my dell touchpad has done some crazy things. My touchpad will 'crash' i guess sometimes, quiet often actually. Ill be scrolling blah blah and all of a sudden my cursor slows down, and pinch to zoom, double finger scroll, and all those fancy gestures will not work at all. Even though the touchpad is still working. And on the task bar on the little touchpad thing when I touch it on places it doesnt light up green like it should whenever it 'crashes'... It doesnt ever say Touchpad crashes it just DOES IT. I guess. And then when I go enable and disable it the touchpad works properly again, and gestures work and stuff. I have tried updating touchpad drivers and I have uninstalled and all that too. so yeah. Also it used to freeze non stop for like a few seconds when I would use double finger scrolling or 3 finger swipe up, but I somehow fixed it.

I am having the same issue with my Inspirion 15 7000 7537 after updating to Windows 10. It just stops scrolling, will open up the task window etc. I have rebooted, checked setting etc.
