e machines mouse pad

[HumbleJim]

Good morning

My left click has disappeared (quite a well used machine a few yrs old) Right click and pad itself okay. It's working okay with a USB mouse. I've changed the settings so that the right button now performs the left buttons job. Very unnatural.

Is their anything I can do or do I need a repair shop?

I've never opened a laptop before, so I'm not confident I won't bugger it up. Is it worth spraying some contact cleaner from the top? Or is this a complete no no?

Just buy a £5 wireless mouse.

Thank's I've got a mouse. I just like to use the pad, getting used to using the right button instead of the left button now.

As you were, it's just started working. I love things that fix themselves.

If it goes again you may find tapping on the pad it self will do a left click, or at least have an option to turn that on within the settings.

So it does, something new everyday.
