No Double Tap in macOS Monterey I recently purchased a MacBook Air with M1, and Monterey was preinstalled. However, double-tapping doesn't work on the system. I can't double tap on the top bar in apps such as Firefox to drag & drop it. I cannot double tap on the desktop in order to select multiple items. What can be causing this issue & why would this occur? This has never happened on any other Apple notebook, or any other macOS.

Right click (two finger tap) on trackpad does not work as previously, instead it shows desktop. Right after upgrading to Monterey 12.5, when I tap with two fingers on my trackpad, it shows desktop instead of functioning like a "regular" right click (e.g. bring up context menus etc.). How can I restore the "regular" functionality of right clicking? I can only do so now when I hit Ctrl+tap. I have an M1 Macbook Pro (2020). In my trackpad preferences I have selected "Secondary click"-> "Click or tap with two fingers". I have also reset the mission control preferences. Thanks in advance, C.
