The left and right buttons of the mouse are the most basic operation buttons of the mouse, and their functions are as follows:
Left button function
‌Single click‌: used to select files, buttons, links or menu items. This is the most frequently used operation. ‌
‌Double click‌: Click the left button twice in quick succession to open a file/folder or start a program (such as a desktop icon). Note that the interval between double clicks must be short, otherwise it may be recognized as two single clicks.
‌Drag‌: Press and hold the left button, move the mouse, and then release the left button. Used to move the file/icon position, select multiple items, or adjust the window size.

Right button function
‌Single click‌: used to call out the context menu and display options related to the current operation (such as copy, paste, properties, etc.). This is the core of the shortcut operation.
‌Custom function‌: In addition to the system-provided menu, the right button also supports customization. Users can set the function of the right button as needed. ‌
