A couple days ago, my mouse suddenly stopped functioning properly as far as click commands.
The problems are random and not consistent. But almost always performs a task I am not ordering it to.
I don't think it's a hardware issue. Changed USB ports
Happens in browser, desktop and other programs.
V Almost the exact sounding issue as this poster had! V

The problems are random and not consistent. But almost always performs a task I am not ordering it to.
Often single clicks act as double clicks and vise versa.
- Sometimes a single click of a word moves the courser to the in between the letters (if editable) or nothing (if not)as it should, but sometimes it would highlight the whole word, sometimes highlight the whole sentence.
- When I exit a tab on my FireFox browser, it would often close it and bring up a new tab also.
- When I try and drag click over a sentence or word to select it, it highlights until I let go of the button and then unhighlights.
- Dropdown menus such as browser bookmarks will flick down and go back up. I've got to click then a dozen times for it to randomly stay down.
Same when I click a photo to enlarge, it flickers enlarged for a split second and the back to orginal size. Just as drop down menus. Again have to keep clicking for it to finally work.
