Windows 95 and the Mouse

Left-Handed Mouse Users

SUMMARY: Flip the functions of the right and left mouse buttons in Windows 95.

Are you left-handed and have troubles with the mouse? There is a slightly hidden option that lets you flip the functions of the left and right mouse buttons. Click "Start," choosing "Settings," then "Control Panel." On the window that appears, double-click "Mouse." On the multi-tabbed dialog box that appears, under "Button configuration," select the "Left-handed" button. Read the new button descriptions on the window. Now, click 'OK' to close the dialog box to finalize the switch.
