如果您使用笔记本电脑或台式电脑，则很有可能依靠鼠标或触摸板来使用它。使用Windows 10意味着使用这些设备之一。您还可以将蓝牙鼠标(Bluetooth mouse)连接到平板电脑，如果这样可以让您更轻松地使用它。因此，如果您想提高工作效率，就必须按照您喜欢的方式配置鼠标。无论您是想更改其按钮的功能，还是将鼠标灵敏度(mouse sensitivity)更改为更高或更低，请阅读本教程并了解如何在Windows 10中执行此操作：
注意：(NOTE:)本文中说明的设置涵盖了大多数配件，但一些更高级的鼠标和触摸板(mice and touchpads)具有专门的驱动程序和附加选项。要配置这些设置，您必须参考特定指针设备的用户手册。
如何访问Windows 10中的基本鼠标设置(Windows 10)
要配置鼠标或触摸板的基本功能，您必须打开设置应用程序(Settings app)。为此，请从“开始”菜单中(Start Menu)单击或点击(click or tap)其按钮，或按键盘上的Windows + I然后，在Settings应用程序中，访问Devices。
在窗口左侧，选择“鼠标”("Mouse")以访问鼠标配置(mouse configuration)设置。
如何重新分配鼠标按钮并设置鼠标左键
第一个设置“选择您的主按钮”("Select your primary button,")设置按钮分配(button allocation)。单击(Click)或点击以打开选项列表，然后选择将鼠标左键(mouse button)或右键(left or right) 设置为主键。默认设置(default setting)是左侧，但如果您是左撇子，您可能希望将其更改为右侧。
是的，重新分配鼠标按钮就是这么简单。🙂
如何更改鼠标滚轮滚动(mouse wheel scrolling)选项
第二个选项配置使用鼠标滚轮(mouse wheel)滚动的工作方式。单击(Click)以选择其中一个可用选项：滚动“一次多行”("Multiple lines at a time")或滚动“一次一屏("One screen at a time)”。第一个是默认设置(default setting)，它使滚动更平滑和更慢，而选择第二个使鼠标滚轮(mouse wheel)滚动一次显示一整屏内容。查看这些滚动选项如何工作的最简单方法是打开一个网站，例如Digital Citizen，然后检查您喜欢哪种滚动方式。
如果您选择一次滚动“多行”，("Multiple lines at a time,")您可以使用设置下方的滚动条来设置一次滚动多少行。单击或点击(Click or tap)并向左或向右拖动光标以减少或增加行数。默认设置(default setting)为 3 。
接下来，您可以设置有关非活动窗口或后台窗口的滚动行为。(scroll behavior)如果“当我将鼠标悬停在非活动窗口上时滚动非活动窗口”("Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them")设置为On，则当您将鼠标光标移动(mouse cursor)到非活动窗口上时，您可以滚动它而无需关注它。如果它被关闭，您首先必须在滚动其内容之前单击非活动窗口。默认(default setting)设置为开。(On)
如何在Windows 10中更改(Windows 10)鼠标指针的大小和颜色(mouse pointer size and color)
在“相关设置(Related settings)”区域中，您会看到两个链接：“调整鼠标和光标大小”("Adjust mouse & cursor size")和“其他鼠标选项”。("Additional mouse options.")第一个在“设置”(Settings)应用程序中打开一个新页面，其中包含各种与鼠标相关的设置和选项。在那里，您可以更改鼠标指针大小(mouse pointer size)以及鼠标光标(mouse cursor)颜色。这个功能值得一个单独的教程，我们已经发布了，如果你点击这个链接，你可以阅读：如何在Windows 10中更改(Windows 10)鼠标指针的大小和颜色(mouse pointer size and color)。
如何更改更高级的鼠标属性
如果您想探索其他鼠标设置，请单击或点击鼠标(Mouse)设置窗口中相关设置(Related settings)部分下的“其他鼠标选项”("Additional mouse options")链接。
鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)窗口打开，其第一个选项卡Buttons处于(Buttons)活动状态。
如何从“鼠标(Mouse) 属性(Properties)”窗口重新分配鼠标按钮
您可以做的第一件事是更改鼠标主按钮(mouse button)，与鼠标(Mouse)设置窗口中的设置相同。在这里，您不选择主要按钮，而是通过勾选“切换主要和次要按钮”("Switch primary and secondary buttons")框来切换它们。
右侧的鼠标图片显示当前哪个按钮是主要按钮（蓝色）。
虽然这是重新分配鼠标按钮的一种迂回方式，但如果您习惯于较旧的Windows操作系统，您可能更喜欢它。
如何设置鼠标双击速度
您还可以设置“双击速度”("Double-click speed")：这设置您必须按两次鼠标主按钮(mouse button two)的速度才能将其视为双击。较慢的鼠标用户可能希望降低此速度。您可以在右侧的文件夹图标(folder icon)上测试所选选项。
什么是ClickLock以及如何打开它
ClickLock是(ClickLock)按钮(Buttons)选项卡上的最后一个设置。您可以通过勾选“打开 ClickLock”("Turn on ClickLock")框来打开它。
当ClickLock开启时，它可以代替单击和拖动(clicking and dragging)：单击并按住您的主鼠标按钮(mouse button)（通常是惯用右手的人的左按钮），然后释放它。这会“锁定”单击，并且您的鼠标按钮(mouse button)被视为已按下，直到您再次单击它为止。按设置(Settings)按钮配置ClickLock长度。
在这里，您可以设置在单击“锁定”之前需要按住鼠标按钮多长时间。(mouse button)向左或向右拖动条可减少或增加所需时间。通过单击或点击(click or tap)OK应用设置。
如何更改鼠标光标外观(mouse cursor appearance)
要访问指针(access pointer)选项，请单击或点击鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)窗口顶部的指针选项卡。(Pointers)
我们在之前的文章中讨论了鼠标指针的自定义选项：如何在Windows中自定义鼠标光标或指针。
如何更改鼠标灵敏度
为了能够在Windows 10中更改(Windows 10)鼠标灵敏度(mouse sensitivity)，您必须从“鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)”窗口转到“指针选项”选项卡。("Pointer Options")
在这里，您可以设置鼠标灵敏度(mouse sensitivity)，或者更简单地说，通过单击或点击并拖动“选择指针速度”("Select a pointer speed")栏来设置鼠标指针(mouse pointer)在屏幕上的移动速度。将其向左或向右(left or right)移动可降低或提高指针速度。
注意：(NOTE:)这是在Windows 10中进行任何鼠标校准(mouse calibration)的唯一标准方法。但是，某些鼠标附带其制造商提供的专用软件，可让您进行更高级的鼠标校准(mouse calibration)。
勾选“增强指针精度”("Enhance pointer precision")选项会使鼠标点击更加精确，因此您可能应该选中此框，特别是如果您的鼠标不是那么好。
如何更改其他指针选项（例如将其吸附到对话框中的默认按钮或显示指针轨迹）(default button)
如果启用“对齐”("Snap To")设置，您可以使鼠标指针(mouse pointer)自动移动到对话框中的默认按钮(default button)（如OK、Yes、Save等）。
如果您选中“显示指针轨迹”("Display pointer trails")框，鼠标指针(mouse pointer)后面将跟随一串附加指针。光标轨迹可以使在低光屏幕上跟随鼠标更加舒适。向左或向右(left or right)移动栏以减少或增加路径的长度。
如果您希望在文字处理器或电子邮件软件(word processor or email software)中键入长文本时鼠标光标(mouse cursor)消失，请选中“键入时隐藏指针”("Hide pointer while typing")。从理论上讲，这会使您键入的文本更易于阅读。
“当我按下 CTRL 键时显示指针的位置”("Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key")选项在使用低光显示器时很有用。它使CTRL键用动画的雷达状圆圈标记鼠标指针的位置。(mouse pointer)
如何更改鼠标滚轮(mouse wheel)垂直和水平滚动选项
要自定义鼠标滚轮(mouse wheel)选项，请单击或点击鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)窗口的滚轮(Wheel)选项卡。
“垂直滚动”选项与“("Vertical Scrolling")设置”应用程序的“(Settings)鼠标(Mouse)设置”页面中的选项相同。如果选择第一个选项，您可以选择一次滚动多少内容，并设置行数。
在水平滚动下，(Horizontal Scrolling,)您可以设置倾斜鼠标滚轮(mouse wheel)时水平滚动的字符数。请注意，这不适用于每种鼠标：您需要一个支持水平滚动的鼠标。
如何查看鼠标硬件信息(mouse hardware information)
要查看鼠标硬件(mouse hardware)选项，请单击或点击鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)窗口的硬件(Hardware)选项卡。
在这里，您可以看到连接到计算机的所有鼠标和触摸板(mice and touchpads)、它们的制造商、插入的端口以及设备是否正常工作。通常，无需访问此页面，硬件属性仅供高级用户使用。
如何配置具有两个以上按钮的鼠标
我们的一位读者询问如何配置具有两个以上按钮的鼠标。不幸的是，这个问题的答案是，您无法单独使用 Windows 10 来设置鼠标上的附加按钮。如果您有这样的鼠标，则只能使用鼠标提供的软件应用程序(software application)来配置额外按钮的功能。制造商。您通常会在随附的CD/DVD上或从鼠标制造商的网站上获得适合您鼠标的(manufacturer website)软件(right software)及其驱动程序。以下是一些最受欢迎的鼠标使用的软件列表：
您可以用来配置Windows 10中任何鼠标上的额外按钮的另一个选项是使用第三方应用程序，例如X-Mouse Button Control。这个适用于从Windows XP到Windows 10的任何(Windows 10)Windows 操作系统(Windows operating)，无论您的鼠标型号(mouse model)和品牌如何。
您(Did)是否设法根据需要配置和校准鼠标？
在Windows 10中，您几乎可以配置鼠标工作方式的所有细节，但当您的鼠标上有两个以上按钮时，鼠标上的额外按钮的作用除外。(mouse do)但是，与以前的Windows版本相比，Windows 10提供了对(Windows 10)设置(Settings)应用程序的简化访问，您可以在其中修改基本的鼠标设置。同时，您可以访问更详细的鼠标属性(Mouse Properties)窗口，其中包含更多选项和以前Windows版本用户熟悉的界面。如果您对鼠标设置有任何疑问，请在下面的评论中告诉我们。
How to configure the mouse settings and sensitivity, in Windows 10
If yоu use a laptop or a desktop PC, there is a high сhance that уou rely on your mouse or on your touchpad tо use it. Working with Windows 10 implies the use of one of these devices. You can also connect a Bluеtooth mouse to your tablet if that makes it easier for you to wоrk on it. Therefore, if you want to be more productive, it iѕ essential to configure your mouse just the way you like it. Whether you want to change what its buttons do, or change your mouse ѕеnsitivity to be highеr or lower, read this tutorial and find out how to do it in Windows 10:
NOTE: The settings illustrated in this article cover most accessories, but some more advanced mice and touchpads have specialized drivers with additional options. To configure those settings, you have to refer to the user manual of your specific pointing device.
How to access the basic mouse settings in Windows 10
To configure the essential features of your mouse or your touchpad, you have to open the Settings app. To do so, click or tap on its button from the Start Menu or press Windows + I on your keyboard. Then, in the Settings app, access Devices.
On the left side of the window, select "Mouse" to access the mouse configuration settings.
How to reassign mouse buttons and set the left-click button
The first setting, "Select your primary button," sets the button allocation. Click or tap to open the list of options and choose between having your left or right mouse button set as primary. The default setting is left, but you might want to change it to the right if you are left-handed.
Yes, reassigning mouse buttons is as simple as that. 🙂
How to change the mouse wheel scrolling options
The second option configures how scrolling with the mouse wheel works. Click to choose one of the available options: scroll "Multiple lines at a time" or scroll "One screen at a time." The first is the default setting, which makes scrolling smoother and slower while selecting the second one makes the mouse wheel scroll a whole screen of content at a time. The easiest way to see how these scrolling options work is to open a website, like Digital Citizen, and check which scrolling method you prefer.
If you choose to scroll "Multiple lines at a time," you can use the scrollbar below the setting to set how many lines to scroll at a time. Click or tap and drag the cursor to the left or to the right to decrease or increase the number of lines. The default setting is 3.
Next, you can set the scroll behavior regarding inactive windows, or windows in the background. If "Scroll inactive windows when I hover over them" is set to On, when you move the mouse cursor over an inactive window, you can scroll it without having to focus on it. If it is turned off, you first have to click on inactive windows before scrolling their contents. The default setting is On.
How to change the mouse pointer size and color in Windows 10
In the Related settings area, you get two links: "Adjust mouse & cursor size" and "Additional mouse options." The first one opens a new page in the Settings app, that's filled with various mouse-related settings and options. There, you can change the mouse pointer size, as well as the mouse cursor colors. This feature deserves a separate tutorial, which we already published and which you can read if you follow this link: How to change the mouse pointer size and color in Windows 10.
How to change the more advanced mouse properties
If you want to explore additional mouse settings, click or tap the "Additional mouse options" link in the Mouse settings window, under the Related settings section.
The Mouse Properties window opens up with its first tab, Buttons, active.
How to reassign mouse buttons, from the "Mouse Properties" window
The first thing you can do is change the primary mouse button, the same setting you had in the Mouse settings window. Here, you do not choose the primary button, but switch them by ticking the "Switch primary and secondary buttons" box.
The picture of a mouse on the right shows which button is currently the primary (colored in blue).
Although this is a roundabout way to reassign mouse buttons, you might prefer it if you are accustomed to older Windows operating systems.
How to set the mouse double-click speed
You can also set the "Double-click speed": this sets how fast you have to press the primary mouse button two times to have it considered a double-click. Slower mouse users might want to lower this speed. You can test the selected option on the folder icon on the right.
What is ClickLock and how to turn it on
ClickLock is the last setting on the Buttons tab. You can turn it on by ticking the "Turn on ClickLock" box.
When ClickLock is on, it can replace clicking and dragging: click and hold your primary mouse button (usually the left button for right-handed people) briefly, then release it. This "locks" the click, and your mouse button is considered pressed until you click it again. Press the Settings button to configure ClickLock length.
Here you can set how long you need to hold down the mouse button before the click is "locked." Drag the bar left or right to decrease or increase the required time. Apply the setting with a click or tap on OK.
How to change the mouse cursor appearance
To access pointer options, click or tap the Pointers tab on the top of the Mouse Properties window.
We have discussed the customization options for mouse pointers in an earlier article: How to customize mouse cursors or pointers in Windows.
How to change the mouse sensitivity
To be able to make changes to the mouse sensitivity in Windows 10, you have to go to the "Pointer Options" tab from the Mouse Properties window.
Here you can set the mouse sensitivity or, in simpler words, set how fast your mouse pointer moves on the screen by clicking or tapping and dragging the "Select a pointer speed" bar. Move it to the left or right to decrease or increase pointer speed.
NOTE: This is the only standard way to do any mouse calibration in Windows 10. However, some mice come with specialized software from their manufacturers, which allows you to do more advanced mouse calibration.
Ticking the "Enhance pointer precision" option makes mouse clicks more precise, so you should probably leave this box checked, especially if your mouse is not that great.
How to change other pointer options (such as snap it to the default button in dialog boxes or display pointer trails)
If you enable the "Snap To" setting, you can make your mouse pointer automatically move to the default button (like OK, Yes, Save, etc.) in dialog boxes.
If you check the "Display pointer trails" box, the mouse pointer is going to be followed by a trail of additional pointers. The cursor trails can make it more comfortable to follow the mouse on low-light screens. Move the bar to the left or right to decrease or increase the trail's length.
Check the "Hide pointer while typing" if you want the mouse cursor to disappear when you type long texts in a word processor or email software. Theoretically, that makes the text you type more comfortable to read.
The "Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key" option can be useful when using low-light monitors. It makes the CTRL key mark the mouse pointer's location with animated, radar-like circles.
How to change the mouse wheel vertical and horizontal scrolling options
To customize mouse wheel options, click or tap the Wheel tab of the Mouse Properties window.
The "Vertical Scrolling" options are the same as the ones in the Mouse settings page from the Settings app. You can choose how much content you scroll at a time, and set the number of lines if you select the first option.
Under Horizontal Scrolling, you can set how many characters to scroll horizontally when you tilt the mouse wheel. Note that this does not work on every kind of mouse: you need one that supports horizontal scrolling.
How to view mouse hardware information
To see your mouse hardware options, click or tap the Hardware tab of the Mouse Properties window.
Here you can see all the mice and touchpads connected to your computer, their manufacturer, what port they are plugged in, and if the devices are working correctly. Usually, there is no need to access this page, and the hardware properties are meant to be used only by advanced users.
How to configure a mouse that has more than two buttons
One of our readers asked how to configure a mouse that has more than two buttons. Unfortunately, the answer to this question is that you cannot set the additional buttons found on your mouse, using solely Windows 10. If you have such a mouse, you can configure what the extra buttons do only by using a software application offered by your mouse's manufacturer. You usually get the right software for your mouse together with its drivers, on the CD/DVD that came with it, or from the mouse's manufacturer website. Here is a list of the software used by some of the most popular mice:
Another option that you can use to configure what the extra buttons found on any mouse do in Windows 10 is to use a third-party application such as X-Mouse Button Control. This one works on any Windows operating system from Windows XP to Windows 10, regardless of your mouse model and make.
Did you manage to configure and calibrate your mouse as you wanted?
In Windows 10, you can configure almost every detail of how your mouse works, with the notable exception of what the extra buttons on a mouse do, when you have a mouse with more than two buttons on it. However, compared to previous Windows versions, Windows 10 offers simplified access to the Settings app, where you can modify basic mouse settings. At the same time, you can access the more detailed Mouse Properties window, with more options and an interface familiar to users of previous Windows versions. If you have any questions regarding mouse settings, please let us know in the comments below.
