Other sites suggest software fixes, such as reducing your double-clicking speed in the control panel or mouse settings. I also find working with a small piece of metal more difficult than replacing it. This will temporarily fix the problem, but the problem eventually returns. It requires disassembling the mouse and Omron switches, then bending a tiny piece of metal, the copper spring. There are many guides online showing how to fix switches without replacing them. I’d much rather fix the problem than spend another $60-$100. Your choice is to buy new mice or return the broken ones. While the switches are still made by Omron, there are quality differences between switches made in China and Japan. Due to this root cause, the issue typically first presents itself on the left mouse button as it is the main button used to click items. After a number of cycles, the actuation spring loses tension and does not make good contact. The failure is due to the primary Omron switches and it does not matter if this is a wired mouse or a wireless mouse. Over time, the problem gets worse until the mouse is effectively unusable. Common complaints are double-clicking, dropping items while dragging them, or not registering clicks. Unfortunately, over the past few years, they are compromising quality by using cheaper parts. The first mouse I owned of theirs was the MX510, and I’ve used no other brand since. Their mice were well-engineered, used high-quality components, and had good software. Logitech mice used to be synonymous with high quality. In this article, I will show how to replace broken switches with high-quality replacements to fix the infamous Logitech double click. I’ve gone through at least six different mice (G500, G700s, G903 Lightspeed) in the past few years the hardware usually lasts about a year before failing. A common complaint with modern Logitech mice is the switches used in the main mouse buttons: when attempting to single click, or drag, you may be experiencing unintentional double-clicking issues, dropping items while dragging, or not registering clicks.
