I would like to set up my PC touchpad so that I can drag when touching with three fingers, like on a Mac.
I haven't found a way to do this.

@DavidPostill thanks for your answer ! I had actually tried following that post, but the link it refers to, to download a replacement driver, is dead. I tried searching for one on the web, but without success. Have you found such a driver ?

You could use a substitute gesture: double-tap and drag (or tap and half):
- Tap, immediately tap and hold, then drag
- Moves an item or selects text
- Like moving a mouse while you hold down the left button
I'm a macOS user, and can say that this gesture is a very good replacement for three-finger in Windows.

Thank you for your answer. This is what I use, but it still is very different from macOS, and thus generates cognitive burden each time I would like to drag something
