Multi touch on Windows not working

I've built a test for mutli touch recognition using the device_mouse commands, and it doesn't work when I export for windows. It works when the device id is 0, but not for any other device number, meaning it can detect only one finger even if there are multiple fingers on the screen.
I tested it with html5 and it detects multiple fingers just fine, so I'm not sure what the issue could be

Has anyone tried multi touch working on windows? Any ideas why it isn't working?

Thanks

I urge anyone with a touch screen to put the following code in the draw event of an object and then put that object anywhere in a room:
Code:
for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
    if device_mouse_check_button(i, mb_left) {
        draw_set_color(make_color_rgb(255*dsin(i*60), 255*dsin(i*60 + 120), 255*dsin(i*60 + 240)));//make each finger a different color (if you even see more than one)
        draw_circle(device_mouse_x(i), device_mouse_y(i), 40, false)
    }
}
When you export to Windows, does it register more than one finger? If you have html5, does it work there?

Day 3.
Only one response...
But I'm still hopeful.
