  3. Taskbar left click and right click not working

    Hi Regors,



    Thanks for the update.



    Please reply to a few questions asked below to understand the issue better:


    • Do you get context menu on right clicking on the icons located on the task bar?

    • Are you unable to use the left click mouse option only on the taskbar icons?

    • What is the primary mouse button set at Mouse settings?


    You might have changed the primary mouse button settings from the
    Mouse
    settings page on Windows. To check the primary mouse button set on the PC, follow the steps below:




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Mouse & touchpad settings and select the top most search result.

    • From the left side panel of the window, check if
      Select your primary button
      under Mouse is set to
      Left
      . If not, select Left from the dropdown bar.

    • Close the window and check if the changes are effective.


    If the issue persists, write to us with the answers to the above questions and the status of the issue for further assistance.



    Thank you.
