I have found the true origin of my issue and managed to find a solution!

I didn't notice it, but there's a driver under Human Interface Devices called "I2C HID Device" that had a yellow triangle with an exclamation point on the icon. When I look at the status it has Code 10 and couldn't run.

After finding the real issue, I managed to find the correct solution. First, make sure the driver is fully updated to see if fully updating fixes the issue. If it doesn't, continue to the solution I used:

WARNING: It's highly advised to make a backup of either the Registry Editor folder you plan on modifying or create a restore point for your whole computer. Information on how to do either can be found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/322756/how-to-back-up-and-restore-the-registry-in-windows

After you've ensured you're all backed up, you can continue. I followed two guides for this, the one from Reddit doesn't lead to the exact location (or the information is outdated) but it has a better fail-safe solution rather than deleting the upperfilters file completely. The other from LifeWire is completely fine except that it doesn't tell you to replace the file. I'll leave the sources but I will be combining the guides into one and try to simplify it:

Step 1: Open Registry Editor with Windows + R and type "regedit"

Step: 2: navigate the folders to reach this point: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class

Step 3: Under the Class folder, you'll find a long list of keys. If you're issue is like mine and is related to only the touchpad, find and open 4D36E96F-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 (take your time, make sure you don't modify the wrong folder)

Step 4: If you see the file "Upperfilters", delete it.

Step 5: Right click, select "new", select "New Multi-String Value" and name it "Upperfilters". You're essentially remaking the file you just deleted.

Step 6: Double click on the new "Upperfilters" value you just made. In the "Value Data" box, type "mouclass" and save. You might have a pop-up say something along the lines of "we can't register blank lines" but you can just ignore it. I don't know if the system is cap sensitive, but just in case I used the exact capitalization used in the reddit post. Capital U for Upperfilters, and all low caps for mouclass.

You should now have a replacement file with the following information:
Name: Upperfilters Type: REG_MULTI_SZ Data: mouclass

Now restart your computer, if it worked, nothing should be broken and your touchpad issues should be fixed! No more yellow triangle on the I2C HID Device!
