  3. Can't click Trackpad while typing

    So this has been happening since I've got this laptop and when I play games like Minecraft or Fortnite the buttons on the trackpad (Left click and Right Click) don't work, this only happens when I press keys on the keyboard and use the trackpad at the
    same time. I can still drag my fingers on the trackpad just not click it. Please help.

  4. Trackpad clicks when I release my finger

    Disable two-finger click for right click, but keep two-finger tap

    Symptoms:

    • Go into TouchPad settings and disable "Press the lower right corner of the touchpad to right click"
    • Also disable "Tap with two fingers to right click"

    Then--while holding your tracking finger (e.g. middle finger) on the TouchPad, click with your clicking finger (e.g. index finger) and release. Observe it is interpreted as a right click, despite the disablements above.

    At least it does now--as far as I can tell this is something that just happened in a recent Windows Update...on both a Surface Book and Lenovo Yoga 720. I haven't changed how I use the touchpad in any way. And for how my fingers work, it misfires very frequently...thinking my moving tracking finger not being fully lifted when clicking intends a right click menu. I see no way to disable this interpretation.

    I'm fine using two-finger tap for right click. The non-configurable lower-right click region never works for how my hand is placed, so I've had to live with this for quite some time. But not this thing I assume must be new (because I never had trouble with it before, nor knew there was a "two-finger click"). Being sure to pull my tracking finger completely off the trackpad to completely clear it for the click is not something I can (or want) to retrain myself to do--too inefficient.

    Can people confirm that this is the case on their machines too, and is there any way to disable "two-finger click for right click" and only enable "two-finger tap for right click"?
