It seems like you touch-pad has been disabled from your keyboard. You can check your keys from F1 to F12 and see where is the touch-pad icon on which key. So all you need to do is to hold that key by pressing Fn key. In this way your touch-pad will be enabled.

it is usually the fn + f9 key to fix it...

I had this issue of my touchpad not working (no cursor or ability to click anything). The keyboard shortcut didn't work and I tried updating the driver but it didn't work either. What did work: I opened "Device Manager". I went to view and hit "Show hidden devices". The grayed out devices are the ones not functioning. Under human interface devices a few weren't working. The driver for "Input configuration device" was the root problem. I held it and hit the option to uninstall it and restarted my computer. The computer automatically re-installed the driver and everything works!
