Frequently Asked Questions
How do I test my mouse clicks?
Press each button on your mouse inside the test area to run a mouse test click check. The corresponding button indicator lights up green with an active count when working properly.
What does the click hold test measure?
The mouse click hold test measures how long you can maintain continuous contact on the left mouse button without switch fluttering or unintended releases.
How long should I be able to hold a click?
A healthy mouse should hold a continuous click indefinitely until you release physical pressure. If it drops mid-hold, the switch contacts are worn.
Why does my mouse release clicks by itself?
Unexpected click releases are caused by oxidized microswitch contacts or weak switch springs losing tension under steady pressure.
