    My button for left clicking below the touchpad has sunk in a little but its a little obvious. It still works though but can anybody tell me how do I make it normal again?

    P.S I only had it for over a week

    Try using a suction device hopefully to be able to adjust it from the inside...

    but seriously, try sinking the other one a little too - that should compensate

    if it's used, try the suction idea.

    One by one exchange is only valid for 7 days and I need my laptop currently so I can't be spending weeks waiting for my laptop to be repaired by the warranty over so minor.

    Anyway, even though I haven't tried it. I doubt there is anything with such a strong suction power available to households.lol.

    Put thermal tape on the left click and stick something flat to it and try pulling it up that way.
