Trackpad issues

Hi,


I have a weird one, my trackpad every few days will forget that i have tap to click, secondary click (2 fingers), Accessibility dragging all enabled.

I then have to go back into settings, turn them off and then turn them back on again for the trackpad to continue working as i expect it to. Has anyone else experienced this or have any clues as to why it's automatically turning them off (although not registering the change in system prefs)


I run Onyx over my machine frequently to fix any permissions etc but nothing seems to work, it's very random when it turns them on/off.


Any thoughts?


Thanks,

Andrew
