    hover too quick


    Maybe its just me, but the latest updates to windows seem to have added a quick click. When I hover over an item it activates an instruction. Ie, choose a card in solitaire and the arrow rests on the card it goes ahead and chooses it for you, when that is not your intent. I know this is a poor example but I don't quite know to explain it. Is there a way to slow down this function, or better yet eliminate it?

    Hi, do you perhaps have this set?

    I seem to recall a similar query some months back.. could be worth searching tenforums.

    Also see (from the tutorials section)

    Is this happening in other applications as well? For example, if you hover over any of the links at the top of this webpage do they take action?

    If this unintended action is widespread then perhaps your mouse is faulty and is sending out false clicks.

    Or viewed another way- have you tried another mouse?

    Thanks. No but when hovering it acts like I click to "select".

    John,

    I do not understand your answer. Is it falsely clicking in several applications / Windows places?
