Windows 10: Mouse double or triple click when I single click

Good day the problem I have is that almost every time I click my mouse double click and sometimes even triple click. I can see it double and tripe clicks since when I open a new tab in Google Chrome I sometimes get own two or more tabs open from just one click. It has started happening recently so i have gotten another mouse to see if that resolve it. It did not. I uninstalled the drivers for my mouse and let windows 10 install the driver. Also did not fix the problem.Did run DISM and SFC and no errors were found.Driver I got from Windows UpdateHID-compliant mouseDriver provider MicrosoftDrive

Mouse randomly double or triple clicking on single click, help!

Ever since a recent update, I've been having very annoying issues with my mouse involving double or triple clicking most normal clicks and not properly registering "click and hold" commands. Thus, it is impossible to click and drag windows (it will just randomly drop them), selecting things is difficult, closing one tab in my browser often also closes the next tab over, and some of the games I play have obnoxious issues (such as autofire weapons firing very sporadically)

I've checked around the internet and apparently this incredibly frustrating issue isn't uncommon. I'm using a Razr mouse on a Windows 10 machine.

I've tried nearly every fix I've seen mentioned online including:

• Making sure the mouse is properly plugged in
• Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers (several times)
• Running all relevant troubleshooters and update detectors (nothing found)
• Changing mouse settings such as "double click speed" and

Now, I also tried a "clean boot," which fixed the issue...but makes it impossible to load several programs I regularly use, including many of my games. From this I conclude that there is some third party software messing with my mouse clicks (suspiciously right after a software update...Thanks Microsoft -_-). How exactly do I isolate the problem and disable its process without trial-and-error turning various Services off via msconfig until both my games work and my mouse does? Or is there some other workaround to this abysmal issue?

 

Mouse started double clicking on single click file randomly.

Hi KathZ,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

Could you please help me with the below questions:

• Which version of Windows you are using? (To check, type: winver in start menu and hit enter.)
  
• Does this issue occur on a different mouse?
  

This issue happens, if there is mouse/hardware issue or it can be settings issue. I would suggest you to follow the troubleshooting steps as mentioned below:

Method 1: Restore the defaults.

1. Press Windows
   and E key together on your Keyboard.
   
2. Go to View tab on the top.
   
3. Click on Options > Click on Change folder and Search options.
   
4. Click on Restore Defaults.
   Click on Apply and Ok.
   

Method 2: Change the Mouse settings.

1. Click on the Settings icon from the start menu.
   
2. Click on Devices > Click on Mouse from the left panel of the window.
3. Click on Additional Mouse Options from the right pane.
   
4. This will open the Mouse Properties window, go to Buttons tab.
   
5. Under the Double click speed, drag the slider to the left to slow down the double click speed.
   
6. Next, go to Pointer options tab, uncheck the "Enhance Pointer Precision" to
   disable pointer precision to slow down the mouse.

For more information, I would suggest you to follow the
steps
provided in the post on 'Windows 10 mouse has started double clicking on single click randomly'.
