winget install --id=nobu121.win3drag -e win3drag (3drag.exe) turns a three-finger press-and-drag on a Precision Touchpad into a left-button mouse drag. CLI-only, runs in the background. Requires Windows 10+ with a Precision Touchpad. Disable Windows built-in three-finger gestures before use.
Windows utility: three-finger press-and-drag on a Precision Touchpad performs a left-button mouse drag. Single 3drag.exe, CLI-only, runs in the background with no window or tray icon.
Requirements: Windows 10+ with a Precision Touchpad. Disable Windows built-in three-finger gestures first (see below).
Do not double-click the exe. Run from a terminal:
3drag start Start in background
3drag stop Stop
3drag reload Reload config
3drag status Check if running
3drag config Open config in default editor
3drag help Help
Exit codes: 0 OK; 1 not running (status / reload); 2 unknown command.
Edit config: 3drag config → save → 3drag reload
Config path: %APPDATA%\3drag\3drag.ini (log: 3drag.log when debug = 1)
[general]
sensitivity = 120 ; 100 = 1:1; lower = slower, higher = faster
dt_clamp = 50 ; reduce pointer jumps; 0 = off
debug = 0 ; 1 = write debug log
autostart = 1 ; 1 = run at logon
Required, or Windows will capture the gesture before 3drag sees it.
