• Windows 7 Clicking Issue
    6 replies, posted
I woke up one day about a couple of months ago and for some odd reason my mouse buttons haven't been the same. I use the mousepad on my laptop and it's pretty reliable however for some odd reason, when I click with the left mouse button on my desktop it does what the right mouse button would do, however my right mouse button does not work. There are other problems as well, if I use the left mouse button to click on different tabs on my browser they don't change, basically I've lost the ability of my left mouse button as well, any suggestions on how to fix this? My system specs are Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 32-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard System Model: HP ProBook 5320m BIOS: Default System BIOS Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 370 @ 2.40GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.4GHz Memory: 4096MB RAM Available OS Memory: 2992MB RAM
In Mouse settings(Located in control panel) on first tab there's option to select either Left-handed and right-handed usage of the buttons. Is it set to right-handed one?

Does this happen if you plug a mouse in? The trackpad drivers might need reinstalling

Could that have been a problem?
Yeah water always causes problems with trackpads and keyboards. Did you wipe it recently? It might fix when it fully dries
