I just recently bought a MacBook Pro because I can put Windows on it having two laptops in one. Mac and Windows. The first time I booted windows after the BootCamp installation I freaked out because there was no way to right-click.
Well, it took me about a minute to figure out a quick way to do it. I assumed this would not work but because you install Mac drivers after the Windows install I decided to try. To my amazement, right clicking works with the touchpad just as it Works while in the Mac environment.
All you do is touch the touchpad with two fingers and then use a third (I suggest thumb) to get the right click functionality. I am very thankful of Apple to think of this in Windows because windows users are lost without a quick way to right click. We just need all those options!
So thats it! Two fingers on the touchpad and another to click. This will get you the right click functionality if you are in the Mac environment on a MacBook or MacBook Pro or if you are using Windows with Bootcamp on a MacBook or MacBook Pro.
Happy Clicking!

On my MacBook Pro it seems not to be activated. I first had to go into Sytem Preferences / Keyboard and Mouse / Trackpad and activate the “Place two fingers on trackpad and click button for secondary click” option.
Thanks anyway,
