I don't know why but my MBA has lately been giving issues with the trackpad since the past week. My Mac is in an almost perfect condition (just a minor dent on the right edge of the palm rest but that too was from 2 years ago). I don't have any other issues its just the Trackpad being faulty at times. Can someone tell me what exactly is wrong with my Mac?
MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
