My touchscreen laptop detects everything as a right click??

[Jess-Jess]

Ever since I updated my computer the touch screen has been detecting everything as a right click. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the  HID-compliant touch screen and it worked for like five minutes and then went back to being broken. I've obviously turned it on and off again and that didn't work either. I calibrated it; didn't do anything. I even updated it again which made it worse lol. The main reason I bought this laptop was so I could draw on it and I feel like I wasted my money. Someone please help me!!! Everything else is working fine. Just the main reason I bought it doesn't.
