This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.Here is a little tip that took me forever to find out. If you run BootCamp on a MacBook or MacBook Pro to right click in Windows all you do is hold two fingers on the laptops mouse pad and click the mouse button.
Vola! Instant left click!
Erm… really? Whoa nice find, I thought that I could do that because of the bootcamp drivers that I installed.
Or is it need to enable in Mac OS first before using it in Windows by Bootcamp? How about scrolling using 2 fingers on the pad?
Hehe…..I thought that was common knowledge. I ended up finding that out by experimentation.
That works too
One of the Apple drivers on the BootCamp drivers CD provides the two-finger right click support. This have been in place since the second release of BootCamp.
The original BootCamp release did not include a mouse driver for the trackpad and so a few other options sprang up. With the second BootCamp release the trackpad driver was included in the Apple drivers CD.
Common knowledge, and well documented on the net.

You can right-click in OS X the same way if you enable the “Place two fingers” option in the trackpad settings.
Instant left-click! I thought the tip was showing how to right click
