  1. Can't use mouse side buttons


    Hey guys!So, I formated my Windows and after that my mouse side buttons stopped working.I already tried using two different mouses and none of them work. I also tested both mouses on another computer and they work fine there.All I can think of is that my system is missing some files or drivers and I can't figure out which ones. I already installed drivers for both mouses downloaded on their respective websites, I already download all drivers for my device downloaded on the manufacturer's website, so I'm guessing it's something windows related.I'm trying to set some macros to the side buttons.

    :)
