Adjusting mice to left-handed use

[Guest]

Hallo,

When I set the mice for left-handed use, after restart the computer changes
the setup back to right-handed. How can I make this change permanent? using
XPP on a laptop.

Silly question, i know, but easily done. When you ticked the button
configuration in mouse properties to switch the primary and secondary
buttons did you then click the 'Apply' button followed by OK? If you only
clicked the OK button then this is the reason why your selection is
reverting back to default on restart.

John,

According to:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwue/html/ch09c.asp
Common Command Buttons

OK Applies all pending changes and closes the property sheet window.
Apply Applies all pending changes but leaves the property sheet window open.


Serdesht,

After setting up your mouse, go to:
