windows 8 files are opening with single click

I am having trouble with windows 8 files are opening with single click when I have the double click option selected. How can I fix this? It is driving me crazy.

In Control Panel\Mouse\Buttons tab if your "Double-click speed" setting is set to "high" try moving the slider to a "medium" setting. It may be that your mouse button is "bouncing" a little and a single-click is being "seen" as a double-click. If your setting is already set to "medium" and the problem has just started then the mouse may have developed a fault so have you tried another mouse to see if it is a mouse issue?

Hi,

As winganken said, it could be because of your faulty mouse, faulty drivers, incorrect settings or so..

You can try his double click speed suggestion and if it didn't work you can try uninstalling the driver and restarting, maybe that'll help.
