On my machines, I always set my folder options to single click for opening items and whenever I encounter a computer that is not set up this way, I find it quite annoying. Do many people actually use and like the double click option? If so, why?
I use the double click when accessing folders. I have a tendency to single click on the wrong stuff sometimes (not caring enough maybe) and if I had it on single click, I wouldn't know where I should be going....
I see. Well, so far after many years, I've never gotten into trouble with single click enabled and I think it's saved me a lot of clicks over the years.
Yes, sometimes i guess... i whould'nt use it in my webbrowser or while playing a game, but browsing Windows Explorer its a pleasant feature (the only thing that is more important is the right click)
Double click, because I hate it when I want to select or drag something, a program starts because the click is misinterpreted.
Guess it's personal.
I just have the thumb button on my mouse double click (the other thumb button is minimize). Best of both worlds.
