This problem in my Windows 7 has existed for a very long time and it drives me nuts ( I would guess over a year). It has existed for many MM (and Windows)updates. It has existed even though I have since the initial notice of it, reinstalled windows 3X. It exists and has existed with 3 different mice. In other words the problem can not be Windows and it can't be my mouse(mice). So it is either the MM settings somewhere or an MM bug itself. The other problem is that it is not consistent either: at times it happens and other times it doesn't--but , not choosing it, often enough it does.
If you click once on a file--you are supposed to be merely highlighting it not choosing it to play. And yet, often enough all one does is click on it once and the file begins to play. also. clicking on a file slowly twice, at times it has the effect of wanting to change it's name (what it is supposed to do) and yet, once again, doing the same thing let's it play instead. These 2 facts are the things that have been driving me nuts forever and then there is problem # 3. This appears to happen when perhaps there are many windows open, besides MM. And that is that MM's mouse actions seem to behave alike A Ctrl-A. the mouse just chooses everything. It shows a funny line and the mouse just highlights everything-- even though a button (left/right) is not pressed.
So it can't be just me having this problem, so why can't I find it anywhere in my search?
