How do I enable a single tap to left click and a 2 finger tap for right click in Windows 7 bootcamp? I have already installed all the bootcamp drivers and I can use 2 finger scroll on the trackpad. I would just rather tap rather than have to click the button.

I can't find any trackpad configuration in Windows 7.

Thanks for any insight.

This is on a new 15" i7.

Why are you running bootcamp?

If it's any other reason than games, then you just need to install VirtualBox (free!) and run Windows 7 inside of OS X. You'll get all of the hardware/driver support that you want, and you don't have to reboot.

Click to expand...

I'm running Parallels with bootcamp. I boot to Windows 7 with bootcamp when I want to play games.

Install trackpad drivers

If using bootcamp 5, download the drivers for bootcamp using an USB with FAT32 formating.

Open the USB in windows. Navigate to USB > BootCamp > Drivers > Apple, dobleclick on AppleMultiTouchTrackPadInstaller64.exe . This will install the drivers for the trackpad and enble the tab Trackpad in Control Panel > BootCamp . In this tab you can enable secondary click with two fingers.
