MacBook TrackPad - Right Mouse Button
People will ask me "How do you use the right mouse button on the TrackPad?" The answer is this: Go into System Preferences, select the Keyboard/Mouse icon then TrackPad. Check all the boxes except for the Drag Lock. Once checked close System Preferences.

The TrackPad is a left and right finger feature. Meaning you should use both hands, the left finger on the bottom bar and the right index finger on the TrackPad itself. To open a folder, drag the cursor to the folder so the folder has the focus. Double click the bottom bar with your left finger. That's the quickest way to open a folder.

To use a right mouse function you have two options. First: place the cursor on on the desktop itself (so the desktop has the focus). Use the first two fingers on your right hand to lightly tap TrackPad. That should open a right mouse menu (new folder, etc.). The second way, which can be a bit cumbersome, is to hold down the Control button with your left index finger and press the bottom TrackPad bar with your right hand thumb. You'll get the same right mouse menu (new folder, etc.).

Do either of these functions often enough and it will become second nature.
