Change the setting of the mouse to single click in Windows 7

Why I can't change my setting of mouse to single click in Windows 7?

Hello

It is difficult to answer your question without knowing what you've tried, what type of computer you are using, what kind of mouse or touchpad and any other details you can provide.

Try to open the Control Panel / Folder Options.

Select single click to open an item (point to select) .

Click apply / OK.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for using Windows 7

I need to start over several times for a list of menu. Similar problem occur to any button on the desktop, taskbar and toolbar

  • Change the mouse pointer in the simulation?

    Hello

    is it possible to change the appearance of the pointer mouse in a software simulation (on a single slide)?

    I got to change the pointer in demo mode.

    Kind regards

    Jurek

    Sure.  Simply select the subject of the mouse on the slide where you want it to be different and then select another pointer in the Options tab.  If you want to use a pointer that is not listed, you can click the Browse button to navigate to a cursor file replacing. Please note that the format must be .cur, not just a graphic file.

    If you want to get really creative and change the mouse cursor for something completely different, maybe it replaced with a graphic file, it is also possible using a widget.

  • Change the mouse click on display once for all the clicks?

    When you create a demonstration of the software in Captivate, I would like to change the mouse click default Visual to the custom effect 'blue circle' for all clicks.  Is there a way to change the default or modify all mouse clicks with an entry?  It is possible to change the shape of all occurrences of the mouse pointer by right clicking a mouse, but it doesn't seem to be a similar option for the click of mouse vizualized.
    Thank you, in advance.

    Hi placebow,

    Open the Options folder by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, appearance and personalization, and then clicking Folder Options. On the general tab, click single-click to open an item. (To return to the standard click, click double-click to open an item.)

    The setting applies not only at the office, but also in other areas of the shell.

    You hear no doubt, is that your movie software will only recognize certain types of image file formats.  If this is the case, you will need to reformat format files to any format PNG is recognizable by the software.

    Rather than we guess, please identify your «film» software

    Download and install IrfanView, which is a free utility for images.  http://www.IrfanView.com/

    IrfanView has the ability to read a great many formats of image files.  It can also convert image files formats.  And even better - for you - it can do all these things on a batch of files.

    As test, after I installed IrfanView, open one of your PNG files.  Now click on file > save as, and select the 'Save as Type' to be little matter the file type of your movie software will accept.  Save the file.  Make sure your movie software can accept the new file.

  • Change the appearance settings to take my windows turns blue instead of white

    In windows XP, I used to be able to change the appearance settings to make my windows (ie. excel worksheet, word documents, outlook e-mail body) light blue instead of white. I can't find how to make the same change on Windows 7. Any ideas?

    Here are the steps I used to do in Windows XP to make the change:
    Do right click on desktop--> click on 'Properties'--> click the 'Appearance' tab--> click bottom right the 'Advanced' button--> in the "point:" drop-down box, I would choose 'Window'--> then I would change "color 1" to a shade longer than light blue "»
    The same steps do not work in Windows 7, and I can't seem to find where to go to change the color.
    Light blue is much easier on the eyes when you work all day in front of the computer, so I really want to find a way to make the same change in Windows 7. Thank you!

    How to change the color of windows in Windows 7:

    Right-click on the desktop, click Customize, click on "Window Color" at the bottom of the pane, click on "Advanced appearance... settings". ", select the list box window drop-down element, click Color 1, click other and type these digits from left and from top to lower left and then right at the top on the bottom right, click OK, click on apply.
