Laptop randomly right clicks while typing.

[Dogsbody23]

I have a user with a laptop the has the right click menu pop up randomly when he is typing in outlook.

 

He is using a mouse and keyboard separate from his laptop so I don't think it is any interaction with the touch pad, which was my first suspicion.

 

Has anyone encountered anything like this happening before ?

 

thanks

hitting the menu key?

Disable the touchpad? Might be ghosting.

If it's a Dell (not Adele) could you connect a mouse and disconnect the glide pad and buttons to see if this is the issue? [You can configure it to disable the glide pad and buttons automatically when a mouse is plugged in]

Try this TouchFreeze

 

We now deploy this a standard on all our laptops

 

TouchFreeze is a free and simple utility for Windows that automatically disables the touchpad while you are typing in text.
