How Do You Right-Click Using The Keyboard?
The right mouse button provides shortcuts to many menu items in Windows; some features are only accessible this way. If you’re looking to reduce your mouse activity – essential for sufferers of carpal tunnel syndrome or other disabilities – you can use certain keys on your keyboard as stand-ins for the mouse’s right-click button. Position the mouse pointer anywhere on your computer’s screen. Select by (left) clicking if necessary. Press the Shift and F10 keys simultaneously to right-click. Set up MouseKeys in the Accessibility Options control panel (if not already turned on). Use the Mouse tab in the control panel. Position the mouse pointer anywhere on your computer’s screen. Press 5 on the numeric keypad to (left) click. Press plus sign (+) on numeric keypad to double-click. Press minus sign (‘) on numeric keypad to right-click.
