HP ENVY 15: Tap to click stops working

Tap to click stops working after the computer goes to sleep. It worked fine until about a week ago. Scrolling and swiping still work just fine, I just manually left click as it will not respond to tapping. If I restart the computer, it works perfectly again until I close the laptop and reopen, date on which it will no longer work. What can happen?

Hello

As soon as you remove the Synaptics software, Windows will load a generic driver that will give you the basic functionality (pointer control, click right and left etc.) until you reinstall the other packet of synaptics.

    Hi SergeyPov,

    I see that you are having problems with your fingerprint reader on your laptop. I'd love to help you.

    You mentioned that you also updated the BIOS. After doing that you did that the fingerprint reader is always enabled in the BIOS?

    Another option would be to possibly check the connections related to the fingerprint reader. It may have a bad contact, or it is also possible that the Board is defective. See the link below that can help checking the connection.

  • HP ENVY laptop - 15-ae178ca: Second monitor stopped working after the automatic update of HP

    I use my laptop with a second monitor (HP Pavillion 22xw) connected by HDMI. It was working fine until yesterday (including yesterday it worked), when a message from automatic upgrade HP was shown to informing him that the system needs to be restarted. After that, my second monitor stopped working. The system will not identify it more. I tried another cable, I rebooted several times, I tried to update the specific Intel graphics driver, I tried to uninstall and install manually another (I can't get this one done, because when I run manually downloaded driver there is a message saying that I need to contact the manufacturer). Please notify that I need my second monitor is fully functional!

  • HP ENVY Phoenix 810: Tiles and charms stop working

    Tiles and charms stop working. When the tiles stops working (by clicking tile on causes Office Office window to scroll) and I could still access the charm of the research, I ran sfc/scannow as administrator. He showed a couple of corrupt files, he couldn't fix, but on reboot, the tiles and the charms worked again. Have experienced this on four times at this point.

    Seems to have started with the last Windows 8.1 update and is somehow related to the engine OneDrive of synchronization.  I hadn't used onedrive; started using it, and this mess. I disabled all settings onedrive pc and laptop and stopped using it. However, the message "Synchronization engine OneDrive" appears for no apparent reason, and then the tiles and charms stop working.  If I have Outlook and Foxfire open apps, they still work, and their open windows always appear in the toolbar at the bottom. All other app shortcut links that have normally pinned it disappear.

    When I try to shut down the PC, if I can do this via the charm of power, I get a message that it cannot be closed because the "Portrait Display Inc. app prevents close.» There is no such program indicated in the list of installed programs in Control Panel. I understand computer Googling there somehow integrated in the HP PC.

    It is a HP Envy Phoenix 810, with a monitor (not touch) HP, both purchased December 2013. 8.1 Windows running automatic updates; using McAffee All - Access AV, up-to-date. Standard desktop applications. No software of Dingo.

    I see that many other people have had this problem, used the approach of the sfc/scannow, with little lasting effect.

    Plnjmw, welcome to the forum.

    If you have configured the Windows system restore, I suggest go back to a restore point before you started having the problem.  This will tell you if the update is the problem.
