  1. Mouse primary button setting


    I use a scroll mouse on the desktop with windows 10, and use "Right" as my primary button. I remote login to the same desktop while I am away using a laptop (mac os or windows 10) which has a normal mouse, and every time I login, I have to change the primary button setting to "Left".


    Can this setting be saved when logging in using remote desktop, so windows understands to use different primary buttons for mouse?

    :)

    Set Left Button as Primary


    In the Win10 task bar on the left edge is the windows symbol which currently responds to a rightmouse button click. Can I change it to respond to a left button click instead ?Settings show Right-handed (left Primary Click ) radio button is set.
    What do you suggest ? Bob

    Hi Yazan,

    Make sure that the Mouse setting is set correctly.

    • In the search field on the Taskbar, type mouse.
    • Select the change your mouse settings option in the search results.
    • In the Settings window, under Select your primary button, change the selected option in the drop-down list from Left to Right or Right to Left.
