If it used to work, you didn't change anything and the settings are OK, it could very well be a hardware issue. I'd try a different touchpad.

So I first encountered this yesterday. Basically when I try and right click using the touchpad my computer treats it as a left click.
I've tried restarting the computer and resetting the touchpad settings. Neither of these fixed the issue. If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate them because I'm pretty much stumped.
Also I checked with a mouse and the right click worked using that, figured I'd throw that out there.
And my computer is the series 7 chronos, NP780Z5E, running windows 7 and as far as I know all of the drivers and everything is up to date.
Thanks ahead of time.
