Windows 10: Touchpad isn't moving my cursor in the correct directions

  1. Touchpad isn't moving my cursor in the correct directions


    I was reading a book on my laptop and found the words were too small to read at a comfortable distance, so I put my laptop into flipped portrait mode which solved to problem. All of a sudden, my touchpad seemed to be working in relation to the new orientation of my screen (in flipped portrait mode, the right side of the screen becomes the top, so now swiping right on my cursor essentially made the mouse move "upwards").


    However, after putting my laptop back into landscape, the touchpad didn't revert back to it's original setting, so now swiping up/down on the pad moves my cursor left/right respectively. How can I get my touchpad working correctly again?

    :)

  2. Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

  4. Touchpad isn't moving my cursor in the correct directions

    Why is my mouse cursor moving in directions i am not moving it towards?

    I randomly started having this problem with my wireless mouse that it would not move the cursor to the direction I want it to go.. So I refreshed my entire laptop, bought a mouse that is not wireless, and I have disabled my touchpad. The mouse cursor
    only works probably 20% of the time? The other 80% the mouse cursor seems to go the opposite direction that I am moving the cursor. I also updated the driver for the mouse. I have done the normal automatic updates. I trouble shooted my Windows Update, Hardware
    and Devices, and Keyboard. Yet I still have the problem. I am not tech-smart so can someone give me specific directions on how to fix this mouse cursor problem? Is something within the laptop broken? I also checked every port (3) of my laptop and still
    the same problem. This is a windows 10 Asus laptop...
