Possible script to auto-turn on my Enhanced Pointer Precision?

So my laptop sometimes turns off Enhanced Pointer Precision for my trackpad, which makes it fairly unusable unless I turn it back on. Is there a simple script someone can write that makes sure that feature is turned on when the laptop is powered on? That would be great.

Bigger concerns... why is it turning itself off, once its set, its set.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

eww leave it off, "pointer precision" is mouse acceleration why would you want it on

I have no idea, but I believe it is a problem with dell drivers for windows 10, since there is the windows menu for mouse settings and the other older windows menu for more setting. Windows 10 does not provide a button that works for mouse acceleration, so I have to turn it on using control panel. I have updated all the drivers and it still works.

Its for a trackpad, I don't use it for my actual mouse. The trackpad is literally useless without it.

he's talking about his trackpad, trackpads need mouse acceleration to do it's job properly and easily.

I don't think so, it sometimes turns off and sometimes stays in. I have no idea.
