The process can be completed two ways.
1. Move your mouse to the bottom right corner of your taskbar, show the hidden icons, and then find the icon that looks like the picture I attached. Right click it, and choose Touchpad Settings.
2. Go to Start, Click Control Panel. Open either Mouse or Hardware and Find the Mouse Icon. Click it, and a window will open, and choose the far right option in the top panel. You will reach the Synaptics Control Panel.
The first way is easier, so I would recommend that.
