Hi, after updating my MacBook Air to macOS Monterey, I encountered an issue with the right-click feature. The detail is that the right-click by pressing and holding the trackpad to open Options does not work any longer. I searched online for solutions and some welling helpers gave me these ways out including the following:
Click the Apple () menu in the upper left corner of your Mac’s screen and select System Preferences…
Click the Trackpad icon in the preferences panel.
Click the Point & Click tab.
Click the checkbox next to the Secondary click.
However, no one solution helped me out. So I am posting here to see if anyone experienced the same issue as me and if there is any workaround to make the right-click functional as normal. If you have any idea or solution, please leave it. I will appreciate it very much!!!
Of course, system errors, mouse connections, or trackpad hardware problems are also blamed for causing this trouble. If the system can’t receive the command that the mouse or trackpad sends to it, nothing happens when you right-click on your Magic mouse or tap two fingers on your trackpad.
When you run into this trouble, you can try the following steps to make the right-click feature function:
Additionally, I would recommend a versatile right-click enhancer here, iBoysoft MagicMenu. It completes sorts of simple tasks within a few clicks, like creating a new file/folder, compressing, opening with, copying, pasting, pasting as a pathname, space analyzing, etc. If you want to make the right-click feature more efficient and effective, do not hesitate and download this handy software to have an incomparable experience on your macOS machine!
