I am disabled, my fingers are paralyzed, I use my fist and cannot use two fingers to scroll. How to enable single finger scrolling on the right edge of the touchpad?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help,
Use the following steps to open the properties page and enable or disable individual settings.
In Windows, search for the touchpad.
From the results list, click TouchPad settings.
In the Touchpad window, click Additional settings.
Click the TouchPad or ClickPad Settings tab . If you have a Synaptics device, the tab includes the Synaptics icon .
Click Settings or ClickPad Settings.
Adjust the settings for scrolling, clicking, sensitivity, edge behaviors, and gesture actions to suit your personal preferences.
NOTE: Not all notebooks use a Synaptics TouchPad or ClickPad; however, all TouchPads have similar features and configuration options.
The Properties window is divided into three areas to help you with TouchPad or ClickPad configuration.
The left side of the window lists gestures and actions. Click to highlight individual gesture or action. When highlighted, select the Help icon to find out more information or select the Settings icon
to change the settings.
The lower-right side shows the finger movement associated with the gesture or action.
The upper-right side shows the on-screen response to the finger movements.
Turn on or off individual gestures by clicking the checkbox next to each item. A checkmark in the checkbox indicates that gesture is enabled.
Click ApplyOK.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

- Let's try this:
Go to Advanced Touch Pad Settings
Go to Start - type in Touchpad settings- click the Touchpad Settings icon
Click Additional Settings- it should open up the advanced settings for your specific touchpad where you can change it.
Keep me posted!

The issue you are referring to is not supported under limited hardware support. At this stage, I recommend contacting HP SmartFriend Services who will be able to assist you further. You can call the SmartFriend team at (866) 211-5207 (In IVR, select option 1, and again press option 1 in the next IVR) to learn more about this service. The Smart Friend department is open 24 X 7. The Smart Friend is a premium service and there may be charges applicable.
It's impossible for me...
