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 in Windows, go to
Settings Control Panel Mouse.
