Hi @aman711,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.


To enable or disable the touchpad on an HP laptop, you can often use a keyboard shortcut. Here are the steps you can try:

Function Key Combination:

  • Look for a function key (F1 through F12) that has an icon resembling a touchpad. On HP laptops, it's often F6 or F9, but it can vary.
  • Press and hold the "Fn" key (usually located near the bottom-left corner of the keyboard).
  • While holding the "Fn" key, press the function key with the touchpad icon.

Using the Touchpad Toggle:

  • Some HP laptops have a dedicated touchpad toggle button above the touchpad itself. It might look like a small button with an icon representing the touchpad.
  • Press the touchpad toggle button to enable or disable the touchpad.

Using HP Hotkey Support:

  • Check if your laptop has HP Hotkey Support software installed. This software may provide additional options for managing the touchpad.
  • If it's installed, you can look for the HP Hotkey Support icon in the system tray (notification area) and see if there are touchpad options available.

Check Mouse Settings in Windows:

  • Open the "Settings" app in Windows (you can press Win + I).
  • Go to "Devices" and then select "Touchpad" from the left menu.
  • You might find an option to toggle the touchpad on or off.

 

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
