Problems with the trackpad persists after coming from Monterey

• Since the update of my MacBook Air M1 2020 to Monterey I found that my trackpad behaved different. I never had a problem with this with BigSur, but out of any reason the trackpad clicks without being clicked or stops working for a short period of time.

I hoped that this will be fixed when I upgrade to Ventura, but the problem is still there. It's really hard if you need to work with it. I created a short video to explain what this is all about and will upload it later.

• try to use a different user => didn't checked this yet

Have you shut down and rebooted more than once since your upgrade...(?)

To trouble shoot further you can:

—Test issue in another user (or guest user) account Change Users & Groups settings on Mac - Apple Support

This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account. 

—SafeBoot How to use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support will sort many anomalies

—Try a external trackpad / magic trackpad and compare your results.. this would be telling.

if you have a hardware issue then take it in for repair
