    Mouse started double clicking on single click file randomly.


    ***Modify title from: "Save As" does not obey my "double click" setting, but other file explore works properly with a double click to open a folder ***


    I have my File Explorer settings adjusted to use a double click to open a folder, and it always works properly EXCEPT when I am using the "save as" command. Whenever I attempt to "Save as," a single click opens folders. This often causes my second click to select a random file in the folder, which subsequently causes my file's name to change to the name of that random file. When I fail to notice, this causes me to lose files, because the file I am saving replaces that randomly selected file in the folder. Please help.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 mouse randomly double clicking on single clicks

    I've had an extremely annoying issue on windows 10 for a few weeks now.

    My single clicks randomly act like double clicks.

    I though my old mouse was faulty so i got a new and expensive one, a M.M.O.7 but this bug persists so it's definitely a windows 10 issue caused by some recent (weeks old) update, the old mouse worked fine previously....

    I've checked the community but i found no solution...

    It's ruining my windows 10 experience because of the annoying situations caused by this bug:

    When i try select a string of text and it double clicks and selects just a single word...

    When i want to move a icon and it double clicks on it...

    When i click on a video to start or pause it and it goes in/out of fullscreen because it detected a double click...

    When i'm moving an window and it maximizes because it double clicked...

    When i click on a checkbox and it checks and then unchecks again because it was clicked twice.

    Stuff like that...
