First no matter what the problem , provide the hardware and software with inxi -Fxxxza --no-host

$ inxi -Fxxxza --no-host

How to provide good information in your posts

When asking questions in the forum, it would be most helpful to all members if you provide some basic information. When you provide info from the terminal, usually from your logs, you have to format it so the content is easy to read. First copy and paste your text/terminal/code into the post Then select the text/code and click the post edit toolbar button </> . Another handy way is to use 3 backticks ` at the start and 3 more at the end of the text like this: ``` Paste text or code here …

FYI, the Synaptics driver is no longer updated and libinput is used instead. You already have the drivers installed by default.

Please also post the output of sudo libinput list-devices.

Check the touchpad options in XFCE settings. Tap to click may be disabled

I thought so. I've marked @anon71843593's post as the solution then.
