Resolved left and right click stops working

I have an HP laptop 15-g019wm. Soon after I start using it it will not respond to clicking left or right. At first I would use task manager to restart Windows explorer. I later found just pressing Ctrl, Alt, Del would fix it. Task manager wasn't needed.
Anyone know what would cause this?

 

Have you tried updating the Touchpad drivers?
Synaptics Driver is listed on my HP Notebook in Device Manager.

 

Thanks. I updated the driver and so far it's working but haven't used it much. I'll post back with results.

 

Hope it works OK. I won't say 'keep your fingers crossed as it may be difficult to use the Touchpad.

 

Updating the driver worked. I hate I didn't think of that, but I've never seen one do this before.
