The trackpad/touchpad on my laptop is acting unusual. When I click on something or move to an area, it jumps or moves to another area.

Mine sometimes does this too. First thing to do is attach a mouse. Then try restarting the computer. If that doesn't work, find your touchpad settings and reset them. Finally, if none of that helps, you might just have a broken touchpad. You can buy spares though, and there are videos online to show you how to do the installation.
