    Left/right click problem (mouse and trackpad)


    Hi everyone, I'm really struggling with using my Cube Mix Plus tablet in laptop mode. With the keyboard connected, doesn't matter if I use the trackpad or mouse, when I click on certain things they just flash up momentarily then disappear. Including the mouse settings window, annoyingly. And the start menu. It works OK for maybe a minute after login then starts acting up.

    So far I've disabled the windows key, and installed an autokey script that is supposed to disable trackpad gestures. Still the same issue though.

    Here's a video of it happening (those are all left clicks, I know I click quite rapidly at points but it's each single click doing the flash-up-and-disappear thing, happens when I go much slower too)

    Any suggestions or help much appreciated, thanks!

    :)

  2. Trackpad and mouse issue in Windows 10

    Original title: Trackpad and mouse

    I have a problem with my laptop (Windows 10) that whenever i set the primary button to left for the trackpad in Settings, my USB wireless mouse sets it primary button to right click. My laptop is a 2740p HP Elitebook. If you have any tips to fix this issue
    please post.

    Touchpad and trackpad buttons inverted

    A couple of days ago my touchpad and trackpad left and right buttons switched themselves up. When I left click, it registers it as a right click, and vice versa. I'd like to fix this somehow.

    -swapping the buttons from the mouse settings is NOT a solution, since that screws up any mouse I connect.

  4. Left/right click problem (mouse and trackpad)

    Hi Junkman. Welcome to the TenForums @Junkman

    Windows has a setting to disable trackpad when mouse detected, this might help rather than more third party software. Type mouse in Cortana and enter settings. Sometimes it is at bottom of righthand side and sometime you have to select Additional Settings, upper right corner to find

    I would check to see what drivers are installed for touchpad and mouse. Some mice work better with their manufacture's drivers installed.

    I would also confirm the right touchpad manufacture has been identified. While not a regular occurrence if Windows detects the wrong make the wrong driver will be loaded.

    When did this start or has it always been like this? Have you tried removing all touchpad drivers, be sure to click on Show hidden devices, menu at top of device manager.
