My touchpad on my windows 11 lenovo not working?

I've fairly recently purchased this Lenovo legion slim i5, or well already replaced it for a another around a solid month ago. Randomly my touchpad stopped working and it started yesterday. I can't tell why it stopped working, I thought it was my touchpad lock on my Lenovo vantage being the case because I was playing a game but after closing it and checking my vantage, touchpad lock was already off. I've tried a multitude of methods and even updated my system on the vantage, I even deleted the touchpad itself to have windows reinstall it for me to see if it could work. I really don't want to end up replacing my laptop again because of this. I'm wondering if its a shortcut that I accidentally pressed and sort of deactivated my touchpad. I've been looking all around the internet and can't find the shortcut and I'm on windows 11. Would greatly appreciate any feedback or support over this.

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    On the function keys (F1 - F12) do any of those keys have a touchpad icon and if one does, try pressing that key or Fn + that key does that re-enable the touchpad?

    If not, click your Start Button, then just type msinfo and press Enter, please provide a screenshot of the resulting System Information window.

    My lenovo ideapad mousepad creating trouble for me. When I start my laptop. Sometimes it is working properly. Next day when I start and switch on the laptop after shutdown it is not working. Everytime I have to use Shift plus restart command and reset the settings in UEFI firmware settings. Then sometime it works and sometime not. Then I have to use external mouse to function

    Hello, i've found the fix. I tried everything already, updating the drivers, reinstalling, literally every tutorial, and i've stumbled on this very easy fix, which somehow actually works :D

    go to settings, Bluetooth and devices, touchpad, and just click on the top right corner where it says "off" to switch it back on

    Made a shorts vid about how to actually fix that problem
