Hi @CLOse_Up,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
It sounds like you're dealing with a touchpad issue where the click/select function isn't working. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try.
Check Touchpad Settings:
- Go to Settings > Devices > Touchpad.
- Ensure that the touchpad is enabled. Look for any settings related to tapping or clicking and make sure they're turned on.
Update Drivers:
- Right-click the Start button and select Device Manager.
- Expand the Mice and other pointing devices section.
- Right-click on your touchpad device and select Update driver. Choose Search automatically for updated driver software.
Uninstall and Reinstall Drivers:
- In Device Manager, right-click your touchpad device and select Uninstall device.
- Restart your laptop. Windows should automatically reinstall the driver.
Check for Windows Updates:
- Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and check for any available updates. Install them if there are any.
Touchpad Reset via BIOS:
- Restart your laptop and enter the BIOS/UEFI settings (usually by pressing F2, F10, or ESC during boot).
- Look for touchpad settings and ensure they are enabled.
- Save any changes and exit.
External Mouse: If the touchpad still isn’t working, consider using an external mouse to navigate and troubleshoot further.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
