Can you right click in other areas of the system?

Hi, macOS doesn’t have a right-click context menu for the Desktop.

#

To add a widget, open Notification center, click on “Edit Widgets…” and then drag a widget to your desktop. You can then use Control+Click on the widget to make changes, e.g., size etc.

Do you have a different mouse or the internal trackpad (if applicable) you can test with?

Yep. Just tried to get a response from my apple trackpad (using an M4 mini pro, btw so not a laptop) and no response.

If I reset macOS, it keeps my apps installed right?

vital cobalt
#

Uh

Honestly no idea

I don’t think it does via default, but I’ve only ever reinstalled from recovery
