While Chromebooks don’t have a separate right-click button on the touchpad, that doesn’t mean the function isn’t available. Should you need to right-click on something, there are a couple of ways to do so without the need to plug in a mouse.

Right-Click Using Two Fingers

The most straight-forward way of right-clicking on a Chromebook is to click the touchpad with two fingers. Just like that, a right-click context menu will appear.

However, you can take that simplicity one step further by enabling the “Tap-to-click” feature.

First, click on the clock to open the system menu and notification tray; then click on the Settings icon.

Under Settings, click advanced, located at the bottom of the page
