Touchpad Stops Working on Lenovo Legion 5 Pro Laptop After Several Hours Restart
If the touchpad on your Lenovo Legion 5 Pro laptop stops working after several hours of restart, and enabling/disabling F10 doesn't work, neither does the Device Manager, here are some solutions to try:
-
Update the touchpad drivers:
- Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
- Expand Mice and other pointing devices.
- Right-click on your touchpad device (e.g., Precision Touchpad) and select Update driver.
- Choose Search automatically for updated driver software.
-
Reset the touchpad settings:
- Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
- Expand Mice and other pointing devices.
- Right-click on your touchpad device (e.g., Precision Touchpad) and select Properties.
- Go to the Driver tab and click on the Reset button.
-
Check for hardware issues:
- Ensure that the touchpad is not physically damaged.
- Clean the touchpad area to remove any debris that might be interfering with its functionality.
-
Disable Touchpad in BIOS:
- Restart your laptop and press the F2 key repeatedly during startup to enter the BIOS settings.
- Navigate to the Input Devices or Mouse settings.
- Disable the touchpad and save the changes.
-
Check for software conflicts:
- Disable any recently installed software that might be causing the issue.
- Run your laptop in Safe Mode and check if the touchpad works. If it does, a software conflict is likely the culprit.
