Windows 10: Middle mouse bitton being clicked down after some time.

Hi. My middle mouse button had been acting weird lately. Specifically it starts to click the middle mouse button at random times and the only way i know around it temporarily is to use the CTRL+ALT+DEL combination and then ESC out of it. After that it works fine for a while and then again. I have had this problem for a month now and I’ve tried numerous solutions with no results. I even have performed a full clean to my hard drive and reinstall windows. The cleanup helped for about 2 weeks but then it started happening again. Also it wont let me click anything while this problem is occurring and the mouse cant highlight anything. When i play a game such as apex legends where the pinging button is the middle button on the mouse it starts pinging everything and sometimes holds the middle click but i could still shoot. Here is a thread with a similar occurrence: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...use-ctrl/81ded6df-475e-4175-9eee-5593debc243e All help is much appreciated since i don’t have enough funds to go to a professional. Thanks!

Mouse cursor becomes tiny when clicking middle mouse button

Setup:

• High PPI monitor (4K resolution, 15 inches), scaling set to 250%
• Windows 10
• Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 mouse
• "Windows Black (large)" cursor scheme

Whenever I click the middle mouse button on my Intellimouse the mouse cursor suddenly becomes tiny. This problem can be temporarily resolved by opening Mouse Properties and changing the Cursor Scheme.

Is there a permanent solution to my problem?

This is mouse cursor at normal size:





And this is the same cursor after I click the middle mouse button:





(The screenshots will naturally be very large as they're taken on a high PPI monitor.)

 

old Microsoft mouse, middle click problem


Hello,
I've got an old Microsoft optical wheel mouse which I like very much, but it's middle-click function doesn't work right, apparently. I've got a program called "Ninjatrader 8" which trades the stock market (futures market, technically) and this software requires a certain type of action where you place a trade by holding down the ctrl key and tapping the middle mouse button. For some reason, my mouse won't do what's required. The scroll wheel (what functions as a middle mouse button) will indeed click, meaning it goes up and down, but it apparently doesn't do the required action in the program I'm running. What I'm wondering, and hoping someone here can help me with, is to figure out how to configure this mouse so it will do what's required. I've downloaded Microsoft's "mouse and keyboard center 2.8" and when I run it, it says, "No supported device detected." Rats. Am I just out of luck, or is there something else I can try to get this mouse to activate it's middle-click? Not sure this'll help, but on the back of the mouse it says, P/N X802382. I assume that's the part number?
Thanks,
