Enable one-finger scroll on Precision M4800 (ALPS touchpad)

Question

Hi! I got my Precision M4800 and I'm really about it. But! I dislike the touchpad for one reason : No option to enable one-finger scroll. I'm kinda 'old school' with touchpad and I don't like using my the two-fingers scroll and all the 'fancy ' features and the touchpad software don't have this specific feature.I tried the old driver version (7.0), but it's not compatible with Windows 8.1. I can see a lot of values in the regedit ( HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Alps and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Alps ) but I don't know which one it can be, Do you know if a generic ALPS drivers exist? Do you have a solution for this issue? Thanks!

Run the DellTPad.exe file in C:\Program Files\DellTPad.  This will give you an older interface which includes the one-finger scroll.
