Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
- When was the last time it worked without these issues?
Let's try these steps to resolve the issue:
You could refer to this article: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c02005814
If the issue persists, let’s uninstall and reinstall Touchpad drivers:
1. Press Windows + X to open the menu and choose Device Manager on it.
2. In device manager, expand category “Mice and other pointing devices”.
3. Under this category, right click on your Synaptic Touchpad driver and click on Uninstall.
4. You may be required to confirm the uninstallation. Check the box next to “Delete the driver software for this device” and click OK button.
5. Restart your PC for the change to take effect. After restarting. Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.
6. Do not perform any manual upgrades to the driver until it does automatically.
Perform a BIOS update following steps from the link: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c00042629
Refer to this article to adjust sensitivity: https://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c04648748 (Adjusting TouchPad or ClickPad pointing sensitivities)
