I am currently on a lenovo ideapad 300-14ISK and I accidentally removed my touchpad drivers and also removed it from device too. Now when I go to device manager there is no drop down menu that is called mouse or touchpad or pointing devices. When I tried to install touchpad drivers from the lenovo website, it says 'No synaptics devices found'. Please help.

Thanks :D

If you have disabled the touchpad from the keyboard, then it won't show in the device manager. Look for it with the FN keys that enable/disable the touchpad before installing the driver.

Hmmm, check for windows updates, also do sfc /scannow in cmd. See what happens. I persume you dont have recovery if you do use it.
