Hi @Gaurav101,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
HP laptops typically come with a touchpad, also known as a mouse touchpad or trackpad, for navigating the screen and controlling the cursor. The touchpad is a built-in pointing device located below the keyboard. It allows you to move the cursor by swiping your finger across its surface and perform various actions such as clicking, scrolling, and tapping.
Here are some common gestures and actions you can perform on an HP laptop touchpad.
- Cursor Movement: Place your finger on the touchpad and move it in the direction you want the cursor to move.
- Left Click: Tap the touchpad with one finger to perform a left-click action, similar to clicking the left button on a traditional mouse.
- Right, Click: In most cases, you can perform a right-click action by tapping the touchpad with two fingers simultaneously or by tapping the lower-right corner of the touchpad.
- Two-Finger Scrolling: To scroll vertically or horizontally, place two fingers on the touchpad and move them up, down, left, or right. This gesture is similar to using the scroll wheel on a mouse.
- Pinch-to-Zoom: Use two fingers and pinch them together or spread them apart to zoom in or out on a webpage, document, or image.
- Three-Finger Gesture: Some HP laptops support additional gestures using three fingers. These gestures can vary depending on the laptop model and touchpad driver. Examples may include swiping three fingers to switch between open applications or performing a three-finger tap to open a specific feature or shortcut.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
