Mouse Double Click Stopped Working

hen it restarted this morning. Now my mouse is working a bit goofy with th e clicks and double clicks not working as they should in all apps. Disabli ng and enabling the driver seems to have cleared up most of the issues, but the double click doesn't seem to work. I can double click from the points tick buttons, just not the mouse.

once I get a few things out of the way.

Seems there were some updates that would not install correctly. I removed them and did a fresh check for updates and let it install what it needed. Mouse seems to be working ok now. It's still Windows 10 though.

Seems the mouse problems returned. Very odd.

Seems to have been a low battery in the mouse, but I don't get the symptoms . It misbehaved with some programs and not others. I found a web page tha t would report all mouse events on the click spot and under Firefox it was fine but in Commodo Dragon it reported doubled UP and DOWN events but no do uble clicks. The mouse setup dialog didn't report double clicks either.

Why would a mouse have any idea what app was being used? Or did the low ba ttery problem cause mouse message issues that get reported differently in d ifferent applications?

I repeat, very odd.

PS This battery was in use for something like a year before it went bad!

Because the app will interrogate the mouse data buffer in different ways/times and due to the low battery, it may well be producing spurious data.

toms. It misbehaved with some programs and not others. I found a web page that would report all mouse events on the click spot and under Firefox it was fine but in Commodo Dragon it reported doubled UP and DOWN events but n o double clicks.

d!

The "mouse" buffer is not in the mouse though is it? The mouse simply send s the mouse up/down button clicks to the PC and the PC turns that into the up/down click and double click messages. Right?

Right, but it's the application running at the time that interrogattes the mouse data buffer.

So how would the different apps be impacted differently by a low battery?

depending on how the app dealt with erroneous data...

The OS and driver interprets all mouse events and then it gets passed on to the application layer.

That doesn't answer the question.

They will not. You may interpret a non functional app as that, but the fact is that the app never got the signals because at the HARDWARE LAYER LEVEL, the OS never SENT the signals, because it never rec'd them. ESPECIALLY if the connection is wireless. So, the failure is an intermittent operation. Here's another word for ya if that one doesn't work. Spurious.

Remember false highs in TTL?

WTFU

If what you say is correct, the behavior would be the same in all apps. Th e problem manifested in one browser and not the other CONSISTENTLY! I saw the same problems in a few other apps while still others did not show any p roblems, but in the browsers I could run a web page that would display the exact mouse messages received by the web page.
