I wasn't sure where to post this, but since it's a software issue, I figured this was the spot. For the last couple of days, my left click has been acting completely possessed. It’ll open apps or select icons just fine, but everything else is broken. I can't highlight text by clicking and dragging, I can't select multiple folders, and basic functions in programs like AutoCAD are basically impossible. It feels like the button is just... crippled. If I go into the Control Panel and swap the primary and secondary buttons, everything works perfectly—the right click starts behaving exactly like a normal left click. But as soon as I switch it back to default, hoping things will fix themselves, the problem comes right back. Why is this happening? To be clear, the mouse itself is physically fine.

Maybe try swapping in a different mouse and see if that fixes it.

Not really, I don't have one... tried swapping it to a different USB drive, but it's doing the exact same thing
