@Zahid25, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
I understand your HP laptop's touchpad isn't working, and I’m here to help you get it resolved.

Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot and fix the issue:

 

Enable the Touchpad

Sometimes the touchpad may be accidentally disabled.

  1. Press Fn + F6, Fn + F9, or Fn + F5 (varies by model) to toggle the touchpad on/off.
  2. Alternatively, go to Settings > Devices > Touchpad and ensure it’s turned On.

Restart Your Laptop

A simple restart can often resolve temporary glitches.

 

Update or Reinstall Touchpad Drivers

  1. Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.
  2. Expand Mice and other pointing devices.
  3. Right-click your touchpad device (e.g., Synaptics or ELAN) and select Update driver.
  4. Choose Search automatically for updated driver software.

If that doesn’t help:

  • Right-click the touchpad device again and select Uninstall device.
  • Restart your laptop. Windows will reinstall the driver automatically.

Use HP Support Assistant

HP Support Assistant can automatically detect and fix touchpad issues.

  1. Download or open HP Support Assistant: HP Support Assistant | HP® Support
  2. Run the tool and check for updates or diagnostics related to the touchpad.

BIOS Update (Advanced)

If the issue persists, updating the BIOS may help.

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
