HP Laptops - Unlock the Touchpad
The HP Probook series has an indicator light near its mouse pad, or the touchpad. Its main
function is to keep your laptop computer safe. If the yellow/orange/blue light is ON it indicates that
your touchpad is locked. This disables the pointer and use of the touch pad; it is not an error and
it is not a hardware failure as a result of a virus attack. It just means that your HP laptop computer
has a system hardware timed program. The sensor LED light needs to be switched OFF in order
to activate the touchpad. Double tap the sensors, or the touch pad, to unlock it, and as soon as
you do so, the light will switch itself off.
Issue
