Windows 10: Mouse Primary Button keeps changing itself to right click

My mouse's primary button keeps changing to right click all by itself. I can temporarily fix it by changing it back to left click but after sometime it goes back to right click. Is there any long-term solution? Please help me I really need it

primary mouse button changes itself

Since I upgraded to Windows 10 several days ago, I have been having problems with my mouse. Without any apparent reason, the primary mouse button setting changes, but without actually changing the setting in the settings panel. So if I have my primary
button set to left, when it changes all by itself, the right button becomes the primary button. But when I go to the settings panel, it still says that my left button is the primary button, but it is actually working as if it had been set to the right button.

As a short term fix, I can set the mouse settings panel to be opposite what I want and have it function as intended, at least until the setting changes on it's own again, or I restart the machine. If the button was set opposite for the short term fix, it
will have to be set back again when the machine is restarted.
