    From time to time, my left-down corner of my touchpad stops working randomly. At first the problem wasn't so persistent and i could easily fix it by pressing f11 lock touchpad/unlock touchpad two times and it would reset the touchpad istantly and also fix the problem. The fix wasn't of course permanent. Now the problem presents it self more frequently it reappears five minutes after my f11 key trick. Searching on the forum i have found only one other person who reported the problem, and i followed the same instruction that were given to him:1 I tried updating the touchpad driver it was u

  4. The left-down corner of my touchpad fails to work from time to time.

    Mouse is erratic at upper left corner

    Hello!

    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (i.e., updates, software installation)
    This has been happening since the Windows 10 update, no issues prior to the Windows 10 update

    • Is this the first time you experienced the issue?
    It has occurred non-stop since the Windows 10 upgrade, no issues prior to that upgrade.

    • When did the issue first begin?
    After the Windows 10 update.

    • To make sure we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve this?
    I have found a work around by decreasing the resolution on my laptop to be at 1024x768 instead of the recommended 1366x768. I cannot increase resolution from 1024x768 without the mouse being erratic and uncontrollable in the upper left corner .
