I recently got a new Logitech mouse and I installed Logitech Options for it. But now my MacBook's built-in trackpad doesn't work, whether I have the mouse attached or not. Does anyone know if there's a way to re-enable the trackpad? Thanks.

Without much detail, suggest removing the Logitech software. It's really not needed to use your mouse unless you have some special options that you need.

I just replaced my old HP Bluetooth mouse with a Logitech 557 so I’m curious to know where you got this software from? I haven’t seen a Bluetooth mouse with accompanying software for years.
In any case I agree with the previous comment, uninstall the Logitech software if possible.

I beg to disagree. Prior to adding Logitech Options, using my M510 mouse was misery. It had uneven acceleration and the pointer was so fricking jerky that iI had to borrow a mac mouse for some work in GIMP. After adding Options, the mouse is perfectly behaved.
