Items getting selected when hovering mouse over it

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand how frustrating it could be when the computer doesn’t work as it is supposed to.



I would suggest you to check the settings mentioned below and see if that helps in making a difference:



Disable Hover feature:



You may want to disable the Hovering over feature for Mouse and check. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows key + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type control and click on
   OK.
   
3. Select Large icons from the drop down for
   View by.
   
4. Click on Ease of Access Center and click on
   Make the mouse easier to use.
   
5. Clear the checkbox for Activate a window by hovering over it with the mouse
   under Make it easier to manage windows.
   
6. Click on OK.
   

Disable ClickLock



Sometimes if ClickLock is enabled any item gets highlighted through the Mouse. We can try disabling it and see if that helps. Refer the steps mentioned below:

   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type main.cpl and click on
   OK.
   
3. Clear the checkbox for Turn on ClickLock.

   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type control folders and click on
   OK.

You can customize the view of Outlook as per your requirement. For more information, see

disable hover popups

Welcome to tenforums.com!

Not sure if this will work in an App, but you could try it.

Navigate in the Windows Registry to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse
in the right pane, double click on MouseHoverTime and change the value to something so high it virtually disables the popup.
400 should be default, 4000 should do it.
Requires a Restart.

 

disable hover popups


Does anyone know how to disable over popups on windows 10? When using windows 10 email and hovering over a clickable link, such as a picture, there is a huge hover popup with the entire URL. It is annoying and takes up a big part of the screen. see screenshot below.
