Windows 10: Touchpad unresponsivenss Lag or delayed

Hi, I have an HP 15 Notebook 15-dy1079ms when I first bought the laptop, I noticed the touchpad responsiveness was a bit delayed but after the updates, it worked normally, now the laptop has about over a year and it has been almost 2 months since this issue started again.

touchpad delay!!!!!!

Hi Glenn,

Touchpad delay on your device might be due to the sensitivity setting that impacts scrolling and other finger gestures, and may exhibit a jumpy cursor. To resolve this issue, we recommend downloading and installing the latest touchpad driver from the
manufacturer's website.

If the issue persist after downloading the latest driver, we suggest changing the synaptic device settings by following the steps below:

• Open Mouse Properties.
• Select Device Settings tab and click on the Settings box.
• Expand the Pointing menu and then expand the Sensitivity menu.
• Select Touch Sensitivity and slide the sensitivity meter from
  2 to 1.
• Click OK.

Let us know if you find this helpful.

 

Touchpad Delay Options Not Found

Hi Jade,

Are you having issues with touchpad delays after typing? This issue might be due to a feature of your laptop. This feature is intended to prevent users from moving the mouse by mistake while typing.

Kindly refer to your laptop manual on how to adjust or disable this feature. It is usually found in the touchpad settings in Control Panel. Let's try checking for the setting again by
following the steps below:

• Click Start.
• On the search bar, type Control Panel, and click on Control Panel from the results.
• If you are in Category view, click on Hardware and Sound.
• Under Devices and Printers, click on Mouse.
• The mouse and touchpad software window will open. Look for any settings related to palm tracking, touchpad sensitivity, SmartSense or Palmcheck. The name of the setting varies because it
  depends on the touchpad driver provided by your laptop manufacturer.

If you are not able to see these settings, we suggest that you contact your laptop manufacturer. Additionally, check if there are updated touchpad drivers for your laptop.

Let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.
