The use of the mouse, regardless of the type or design that it is, is one of the actions we perform daily and at all times in our computers and with any operating system available because thanks to the mouse we can select items, open applications, copy or cut objects and in general perform hundreds of actions on the system and its programs..
By default, the Windows 10 operating system allows us to double-click on it to open an application, file, folder or utility. But when we use devices that have a special configuration , such as the Surface, for example, it is ideal to access any element just by clicking on it, this reduces time and improves accessibility to the element.
TechnoWikis will explain how to enable the mouse so that the opening of objects is with a single click..
