How to right click on a MacBook touch pad

Good afternoon,

By default, one can perform the right-click action using the keyboard shortcut and trackpad action "OPTION + CLICK". If you wish to use the standard, right-click action, open System Preferences, navigate to "Trackpad", and enable "Secondary Click"

Have a great weekend, and thank you for reaching out to the Apple Support Community.

Access System Preferences and click the Trackpad section. There enable secondary click and follow the instructions.
