Hey, I've recently been having a problem with left clicking on some things, its only a problem on some things and games but they get annoying and make some of the games I play unplayable, When ever I left click to do something in a game or online the window will flash white and I will see the Not Responding thing by the name not even for a second, but it causes my windows to flash in and out to the desktop. I don't think it is a virus because I just did a computer restore today and it is still happening. If you know how I can fix this please help me, because it stops me from doing a lot of t

opening icons on desktop

Hello Evaine,

We still can't identify the possible causes of this desktop icon issues you're experiencing. To get a closer look at the root cause, we need additional information. Kindly answer the following questions below:

• Are you also experiencing the same issue when clicking any icons on the Start menu?
• Does the issue still the same when using another mouse? How about using your mouse on another computer?
• Is it also possible to send us a screenshot when the white square box appears after you double click the desktop icon?
• Have you also tried performing a hardware troubleshooter? If you still haven't, just follow the steps below:

Hardware Troubleshoot

Windows has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. We would suggest that you run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your mouse.

Refer these steps:

• Press Windows key +X, select Control panel
• Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the view all option on the left panel
• Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter

We look forward to your reply.

 

Left click not registering

I suggest you start the trouble-shooting effort with simple left-click actions, e.g. like so:

• Single click any desktop item. This should highlight the item.
• Double-click any desktop item. This should open it.
• Drag any desktop item do a different place, using your mouse. Can you move it?

Could it be that your mouse buttons are reversed?
