Can i just say this driver makes my head explode but unistalling it is literally 100x worse? :mad:
Ok so here is the issue at start. I got a new lenovo laptop after my old one kicked the bucket and
the laptop alone is beautiful. Works great , great graphics , yeah. The biggest issue for me though is
the mouse. I play games and the previous issue was that the mouse has a serious tap2click issue
going on with it. It would literally click everything and this caused me to screw up alot in games so
i installed Synaptics mouse driver (Which according to Lenovo support,i'm supposed to have anyways)
to disable that annoying tap2click and it worked but ofc a new problem was born. Now i couldn't use
my mouse and keyboard at the same time. Again i game so this was a game-breaking issue for me.
After a few days i was able to resolve this issue but now i have ANOTHER issue. :cry: Now it's getting
very hard for me to right click. I have to tap it several times just to right click. This is getting really
stupid and i'm ready to just deal with the tap-happy mouse i had before because it seems this driver
is loaded with problems. Is there any way to fix this issue? To be clear , I can't right click properly.

By Synaptics mouse, do you really mean the touchpad on your laptop?

I have never encountered a touchpad on a laptop that I thought was worth using so I always use an external mouse whenever possible. I also set the option to disable the touchpad whenever a mouse is detected. That's probably not the answer you wanted to hear but that's been my personal solution.

Yeah and it turns out that the right click is working , it's just left clicking which is kinda the same in my book and still qualifies as non-functional. I don't need 2 left clicks. Thats like having 2 left feet , It's just not call for. I don't have an external mouse and only have 2 dollars to my name so .... Not to mention that the USB ports on this laptop aren't exactly the best when it comes to keeping sturdy due to the fact that the prev owner used them like they were going out of style.
