Windows tip: Open programs with single mouse click, not with the default double click

By Detector | 07 February 2009

In Windows settings you can define whether you want your programs and files to open with a double click, which is the default setting, or with a single click.

In order to turn this setting on, under the Tools menu inside the Windows Explorer, choose Folder Options, and then in the new dialog window that opens up, check the box next to the “Single – click to open an item (point to Select” option).
