HP Notebook PCs - Using the touchpad (Windows 11, 10)

A touchpad is a pointing device with a touch-sensitive surface located on the palm rest of the notebook. You can adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad, enable or disable the features and gestures, and change the functionality of the buttons.

Some touchpads have a touch-sensitive area bordered by two or more buttons that function like the left and right buttons on an external mouse.

Other touchpads have unmarked areas for left and right clicking, instead of discrete buttons. To right-click using a touchpad, press the bottom right corner. To left-click, tap anywhere on the touchpad, or press the bottom left corner.

Note:

Not all gestures are compatible with all products. For additional information, see the user guide for your computer.

Note:

HP recommends periodically checking for software, drivers, and system BIOS updates to ensure you get the maximum functionality out of your notebook and pointing device. See the section Run Windows Update (Windows 10) in this document, or the HP document HP PCs - Downloading or Updating Software and Drivers.
