Two-Finger Scrolling not working (Windows Host + Windows Guest, Synaptics Touchpad)

Hi support/community,

an old problem hit me again: I got new hardware (Windows 10 Host / HP Laptop / Synaptics SMBus Touchpad), and Two-Finger Scrolling fails to function in all my virtual machines (VMWare Workstation 15.0.1, several (all?) Windows versions). I use this feature often, and find it pretty annoying that it does not work. If I attach any mouse, the scroll-wheel works fine in both the host and the guest. VMware tools is installed, but didn't help.

I saw posts complaining about VMWare Workstation having problems with two finger gestures on Synaptics Touchpads dating back till 2010, and I think there should be a solution by now.

Any clues what I can do to get two-finger scrolling to work 2021?

Thanks, Armin.
