Here we show 5 ways how you can assign various predefined actions to your mouse buttons.

If that is the case, you will need another way to change and customize your mouse button actions because Windows doesn’t have any built in options to do it. While most companies support their mice with software, some mice are more generic or come from a manufacturer that hasn’t made its own software. The company that makes this software will usually only support the mice it manufactures, so you can’t use Logitech software with a Razer or Corsair mouse, and etc. Using the software that is designed for the mouse, you will be able to configure the buttons to perform a number of different tasks. More expensive or premium mice can come with upwards of ten or more buttons. For instance, the middle mouse button in Google Chrome can close tabs, open links in new tabs and auto scroll. Most mice also have a third button on the scroll wheel that doesn’t really have a default function and can perform different actions depending on the software you are using. Any computer user will know that the default actions for the standard mouse buttons are left click to select, right click to show the context menu and the wheel is used for scrolling.
