Good day!

What Windows version are you using?

I understand that you are looking for Mac-like touchpad functions on a Windows machine.

Functions like multi-touch gestures have been an essential part of the Mac OS to make it easy to use.

It is actually now available for the Windows 8 via the new touchpad drivers of Synaptics that was launched in November 2012.

You must have Windows 8 operating system and the compatible touchpad or trackpad hardware for these new gestures to work.

Check the Synaptics driver page through this link to see a list of compatible hardware.

Hi,

You can use the Logitech wireless touchpad. It has many similarities like apple Magic trackpad. It has 5 inch touch area and installation is also pretty easy. Both have AA batteries and 2.4 GHZ wireless band and both have almost same multi-touch gestures. But in Logitech touchpad there are not enough gestures if you are using it on Windows 7. But it works perfectly fine with Windows 8.
