Configuring the Touchpad
You may want to configure the touchpad to suit your needs. For example, if
you are a left-handed user, you can swap the two buttons so that you can
use the right button as the left button and vice versa. You can also change
the size of the on-screen pointer, the speed of the pointer, and so on.
To configure the touchpad, go to
Settings
Devices
Touchpad
(for
Windows 10) or

Touchpad
(for Windows
11).
