I am aware of this very similar question:
But I have tried with 3 different mouses and everyone of them exibit the same behavior. Simple enough, 1 out of 3 times I get a double click when single clicking).
I searched the net a lot about this problem and have yet to find a solution.
I have tried:
-
switch to another mouse
-
uninstall the mouse drivers + reboot
-
I do not have any special mouse drivers/software like intellisense and logitecs to uninstall.
-
verified that I was not in fact on some setting that says open files with single click.
-
everything is up to date including a antivirus
-
Installed fresh drivers from dell's website
It is a dell vostro 260 computer running windows 7 pro 64.
edit: added a 6th thing I tried.
edit2: tried reinstalling every windows update I could find nothing
Boss just said he'd buy me a logitech mouse hoping the drivers will fix my problems. Hopefuly!

Answering myself since this is what fixed it in the end. So in the end buying a new logitech mouse and installing its drivers seems to have fixed the issue. At least for now. Thanks for everyone who tried to help.
