Touchpad not working on my HP Pavilion x360 Convertible 14

Hi,

I just found out that after the recent OS update version 21H1, my touchpad stopped working.

However the keyboard is working but i am not able to use the touchpad. Even the cursor is not showing.

I had tried to update the latest BIOS and then install the new synaptics touchpad driver but it is again showing the error that "The driver is not supported on this OS version (10.0.19043)

I tried to find this 21H1 version on HP Support but it seems they have not uploaded the drivers for this version. It is only showing version upto 20H2.

It is also showing the I2C HID Device error "This device can not start"

Note: I had tried all the basic troubleshooting to rectify it but with no success. It seems it is related to the new software update as the external mouse is working fine.
