Fixes in HP Laptop Touch Screen issue

Enable or Reinstall

Firstly, if you are on Windows, search for ‘view pen and touch info‘ in the search bar. Then look for Pen and Touch section, if it says that ‘No pen or touch pen is available‘ then the PC may not be compatible with the touch screen. If you are sure that your PC is a touch screen device, head to HP’s website and enter your HP Laptop details. Check if the label on your PC matches the mentioned serial numbers. If it does and you are still unable to access it, the touch drivers may be disabled or need reinstallation. Go to device manager on your computer and click on the Human Interface Devices which will expand and from that enable the device. If it still does not respond reinstall the touch screen driver being used.
