Recently upgraded to Windows 10 and curious about disabling the scrolling feature where two fingers scroll and then one is lifted, stopping the scroll and returning to a normal cursor. I wish I could switch to a mode where lifting one finger would halt the scrolling. It felt similar in Windows 8 but now it's different in Windows 10. There’s no setting mentioned, but I’m wondering if an app or reverting to older touchpad drivers might help. I currently use Synaptics Clickpad V0.0 drivers, which are the latest available, and my system is Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit.

I would be cautious about reverting from Windows 10 drivers back to Windows 8 drivers.
So I am saying "no" when it comes to going back to an older driver—not because it isn’t possible, but because doing so might not be necessary in the long run.
Even if in the far future Windows 11 becomes available.
I recommend another strategy.
Although it may seem challenging now, adapting to the new scrolling process could ultimately save you from constantly searching for alternative solutions to maintain the "Windows 8" experience.
Choose the newer method. You might find you adjust more smoothly than expected.
