Annoying issue with Windows 10

Post by Epic »

Hi!

After upgrading to Windows 10, I need to use two clicks instead of one everywhere. Has anybody got the same issue? How to solve it? It's annoying as hell.

You mean in game? Nope. I have no such issue. Have you tried re-installing? :-k

Go to your game library, right click on EHM: Delete Local Content. Then install again.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't delete the saves too, but you might want to make a copy of them just in case.

Sadly the re-install didn't work. Any other ideas? Haven't got this issue with any other games.

Seems like this is a more general Windows 10 issue. I found a link, but unfortunately there is no solution posted: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/wind ... fed?auth=1

I'd suggest swapping out your mouse if you can. It might also be worth checking for a newer version of your mouse drivers. Also, try checking your mouse settings to see if there is anything there that might help: Start Menu -> Settings -> Devices -> Mouse & Touchpad -> Additional Mouse Options (Microsoft really make it hard to find any settings in Windows 10...).

Actually forgot to mention the issue is with my touchpad. Can't swap that out. :)

Been messing with the settings, but no solution so far. I'll keep trying, though.

Have you tried changing Win settings so that double clicks aren't used at all, for example when clicking on an icon? Not sure if this can be done in Win 10, but it used to be an option in an earlier Windows version.

Of course this might be confusing in other instances of regular use, but perhaps you could make the option quickly available (shortcut?) and then switch it on and off when playing or not playing EHM. At least until a better solution arises or the problem gets fixed on it's own with Windows updates or some other way.

Try connecting a USB mouse to the laptop.
