I've had an ongoing problem since upgrading to Windows 10. And I'd like to stress that I never had this problem on Windows 7, only on Windows 10. Basically, my left mouse button works fine, but my right mouse button works only intermittently. This is very noticeable in while gaming, in particular with Skyrim, where when I hold down the RMB it seems to stutter or start and restart. I also have the issue with having to right click multiple times in programs like Microsoft Word to bring up the context menu and when right clicking on the desktop I get the near endless loading pointer.
Troubleshooting steps I've taken are listed below:
Related Hardware:
-Windows 10
-Razer Naga Epic
Things I've Tried
-Restarting computer
-Uninstalling/reinstalling mouse drivers
-Deep antivirus scan
-Restarting Windows Explorer
Updated my Win 7 Pro x64 computer last night to Windows 10. Now can't click on the start menu items or really any windows menu. Some other random things won't accept a left click either. Chrome seems to respond just fine but not firefox. I'm puzzled. I have a Razer Naga 2014 but tried a Cheap little logitech mouse with same results. I also logged into my machine Via team viewer from work and left click still doesn't work on things.
I'd be totally fine doing a fresh install but not sure of the procedure yet to have it activate without installing windows 7 first then doing the upgrade again.
We have Windows 10 set up on our PC, and the mouse scroll wheel used to work as it should on both mine and my wife's accounts. Lately on my wife's account, the mouse scroll wheel won't work at all, both in windows applications as well as web pages.
what would cause my mouse to all of a sudden work for one user profile but not for another?
I lost the capability of deleting when I right click my Logitech mouse. It worked great 2 days ago. I am running windows 10.I did see many other posts on the WEB concerning this same problem but found no way to correct it.
On certain games that I mainly use a controller with the mouse is switching to desktop when i click the left mouse button. It does it across multiple mice and multiple monitor setups. This issue just started recently and hadn't been a problem before. What could be causing the mouse click to act like it's clicking the desktop? I think that might be the issue.
I've got this issue that comes and goes. So basically my mouse wont click my taskbar sometimes and on google chrome when i press on one of my bookmarks it opens a new tab instead and when i press on it, it closes down, and no im not pressing the X, its wherever i press it will just close down.
This issue started happening this summer when i did a fresh install of Windows 10 but then i fixed it by restarting explorer.exe and it disappeared but now even that wont work. It started to happen again when i installed Windows 10 on my SSD yesterday and the problem just showed up and then after a while it disappeared but now its back again.It is really frustrating. i read somewhere that it could be my middle mousewheel that is lagging up but i dont think so.
Yesterday, out of the blue, I was no longer able to left click on a folder to open it. If I right click and then choose open, it will open. I get the error message:
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel."
I have not made any changes lately and I don't know what could cause this as I have never experienced this on any version of windows. I am running Windows 10 Enterprise on my Dell XPS 8100 with an Intel i5 Processor at 3.20Mhz and 8 GBs of DDR3 RAM, and a 1 TB HDD which is about 1/2 full/empty.
I upgraded from Win7 to Win10 while back and not sure why but a lot of times when i right click on a folder to copy or rename the mouse cursor starts turning and 5-7 seconds later kicks me out and closes all open folders, and then i have to go and open that specific folder again.
I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and installed my drivers and updates, but I noticed that my mouse click is not working on any metro interface (including Edge). It is working fine in games and other non-metro softwares. I am using Dragon War ELE-G7 mouse.
I have just bought a brand new Viglen Omnio 5 all in one PC pre loaded with Windows 10. Everything works fine except that when I go into file explorer and try to right click on a file to edit/copy etc it just hangs and locks the whole screen. The mouse works perfectly on everything out of file explorer. I know this problem has been around for a while but I cannot find a solution anywhere. Because the OS was preloaded I don't have any driver discs.
After the 12Jan2016 Windows 10 Home updates some taskbar icons became unresponsive to a left click of the mouse. Examples are the leftmost for access to all applications, the right most to access the calendar, the next most rightmost to access notifications. Right click of the mouse on the icons works as expected.
So something weird happened the other day and my mouse would not click certain buttons on chrome, windows it self and a few other things. other things would click just fine. I restarted my computer and nothing changed. Reset cmos and low and behold it worked. and now it keeps redoing it over and over.
How do I turn off the mouse auto click when it hovers over a link in a web page. I downloaded the windows 10 and it has started doing this. I can't find a thing anywhere about this issue. I have an Asus laptop and a Toshiba laptop and they are both doing this since getting the windows 10. I spend more time going back to my original page than I get to read the original page! Try shopping and reading a description. Taking a test online was challenging to say the least.
Laptop issue. I was using it without any problem, but ten I restarted it. I could normally login, but when desktop shows up I cant click any icons, run task manager and when pointing mouse on taskbar, it changes to wait circle. After some time window saying that program stopped working shows up but it does not change anything.
My power scheme is set to lock the screen after 4 minutes, turn display off after 5, sleep (S3) after 10 (hybrid sleep disabled). Auto-sleep usually works a few times after reboot, but then fails: no screen lock, no display off, no sleep. No new apps have been launched in the meantime. Then, perhaps an hour later, auto-sleep starts to work again for a few times, then fails again. (Manually suspending or resuming the PC always works properly.)
Powercfg /requests consistently lists nothing in any category. Powercfg /lastwake just shows the keyboard activity that I used to wake the computer from its last sleep. The network adapter's wake-this-computer box is deselected in the device manager. Media streaming is not enabled. There is no homegroup. Dism scanhealth and checkhealth show no errors. Checking the system drive and all data drive shows no errors.
I've tried restoring the default power settings for all plans, then reestablishing my own settings, but the problem persists.
Manually putting the PC to sleep is not a viable workaround, in part because the PC wakes for some scheduled tasks (especially overnight) and needs to go back to sleep (which it isn't doing).
Latest updates, drivers, and BIOS are all installed. Motherboard is ASRock Z77 Extreme4.
There are tools to show what keeps a PC from sleeping when idle (powercfg /request), and to show what wakes an idle PC (powercfg /lastwake). But are there any tools to show what keeps an idle PC from being recognized as idle?
Roughly every hour I get a Cmd window popup that lasts a couple tenths of a second. Some text appears line after line in the window and, as I said, it vanishes. I checked the event log right after the last one and found a appropriately time stamped event in the Security log. Here is the data from the log.
A security-enabled local group membership was enumerated.
I upgraded to W10 on the 31st July and all well apart from intermittent stoppages in File Explorer.
There have been 4 stoppages over this period and an identical one at boot up this morning.
It is reported in Reliability Monitor although I have neither seen or experienced any problem in running File Explorer.
Reliability Monitor gives no error details and auto reports have been sent to Microsoft. I did do a restart in Task Manager yesterday but it occurred again this morning. However in Event Viewer I saw the following for this morning stoppage:
After months of ignoring your apps for upgrading to Windows 10. I finally said ok and download it to my computer. Now it keeps shutting down intermittently. Even when I am doing important work it shuts down right in the middle. It also keeps telling me that 70% of my drivers are outdated.
I've never had this message appear on Windows 8 and I did go and disable anything I felt I wasn't using sufficiently. But my Windows 10 is freezing intermittently and I'm getting a message about low memory.
What gives? I have 4GB RAM and that's all my PC will hold, unfortunately. Is Windows 10 gobbling up memory?
Edge, Firefox & Chrome work intermittently. After some time, that's not consistent, searches stop working. Solutions include deleting all browsing data (sometimes works) and rebooting (always works to this point). This intermittent problem only occurs with my Dell laptop. I have two other PCs that don't have this issue.
Since installing Windows 10, the sound will cut out every so often, usually while watching a video on YouTube or I've downloaded. If I reboot the sound works. I notice that I can't left click on the the task bar when this happens. To reboot I need to right click on the Start button. I tried updating the drivers (Connexant Smart Audio HD) but they were up to date.
I have three machines with Win10 Pro. Two behaving quite well, however one machine ABit IP35 Pro, 256 SSD, 1 TB hard drive, Nvidia 750 ti, 8 GB ram just intermittently just hangs up during operation. This is a very fast machine with a quad Intel Processor. This machine ran perfectly with all of same hardware on Win7 Pro. You can just move the cursor to send an email and we get the little blue circle and the machine is hung. It is not program dependant! Same thing can happen working in any browser.
